Rules

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Buddha ... taught unity, with ... others

Umm.. I don't think the Buddha taught that?

The Buddha teaches even more universal oneness than merely unity with other humans. Some who meditate are able to achieve ego death.

ego death

I think perhaps ego death isn't what you think it might be. It isn't relevant to living with others, it's an experience where there are no others and no self which could relate to each other:

There are only pure awareness and ecstatic freedom from all game (and biological) involvements."' -- quoted in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death
