Selfless means less like my Self.
Selfless & unselfish are not the same.
Unselfish is my Self being liked by others.
Others like my Self when I am unselfish.
Those who need to be liked and be like others find being unselfish allows them to be more easily included.
Being selfless is becoming unattached from the dominance of my ego self.
My ego self is the conscious perceiver of my physical material world.
The selfish ego seeks to control its existence in the physical world.
The selfless ego knows that its true self is the spirit of its Soul.
My True Self knows that I am more than my individuated egotistical experience.
The less attached that I am to physical life, the more sensitive I am able to be to the existence of others.
Being selfless allows me to be sensitively detached from other people and their personal dramas.
