Why is this?
Because if you can integrate all these abilities and survive them, then you can effectively help yourself and others ongoing the rest of your lives. It is mostly about just surviving your abilities to begin with before they kill you.
This is most easily accomplished by realizing there is only one being in the universe that all are a apart of. Understanding this, anyone you harm is harming yourself.
However, conversely, anyone you help is also helping yourself.
So, it is in your enlightened self interest to help yourself and everyone in every way you can because they are all you and you are all them. There really is no useful separation.
I find this the most effective to understand when I am in a forest of trees. They are aware they are all one forest and not just individual trees to a much greater extant than humans are aware that they are all humans and not just themselves.
I think it is probably because they are rooted and never move usually from where they first sprouted in the ground. So, part of it is spatial.
Whereas humans can be born anywhere and now literally live anywhere on earth. So, there is the illusion of separation from where anyone was born to some degree.
However, in the end we are like the forests of earth too in that we really cannot be separate from anyone in the end.
We are all one organism like the forests of earth. Understanding this life starts to make us whole in body, mind and spirit.
