In Eight Steps to Happiness Geshe-la says "'Self' and 'other' are relative terms, rather like 'this mountain' and 'that mountain ... 'This' and 'that' therefore depend upon our point of reference. This is also true of self and other. By climbing down the mountain of self, it is possible to ascend the mountain of other, and thereby cherish others as much as we presently cherish ourself."

a TSA photo that appeared in a NY Times article and this caption:
Body scanners using millimeter-wave and X-ray technologies have been installed in 70 airports around the country.
