When you put a handful of salt into a glass of water, the water becomes very salty.
When you throw a handful of salt into a river, it is still not enough to make the river saltier.
That is a typical example of inclusion.
If your heart is as vast as “a river,” it can hold many, many handfuls of salt. If your heart is only “a glass of water,” you become small-minded, judgmental, and competitive…
And in truth, your heart is far, far more compassionate than you think…!
