You find your self (belonging, trust, caring,...ect), with the community with others. To understand your self, is to understand others aswell.
Mybe the two work in sequence. I geuss everything in the universe is interconnected.

It's not so much that you understand with others but that you connect with others through relationships and interaction. You understand who you are, what values you possess, what your aspirations are, what your true self is really like through being in a community of others.

Just the opposite. The outer universe is but a reflection of the inner self. The world is a house of mirrors, reflecting back to you, your spiritual condition.If you see flaw in anyone and it upsets you, it is but your flaw you see.If you attempt to correct their flaw you will step through alice's looking glass, into a very confused condition.

I believe it's the other way around, if you know yourself, you will understand others more.

Not really, I mean, I don't really "understand myself" nor ever plan to, and yet I find myself pretty capable of understanding others.

I stopped 'must-urbating' myself in this way a long time ago....I try, do my best, don't allow myself to be a 'door-mat', neither a hero. Do you understand me? or did I not FIRST understand you or your question?
