The concept of mu is more like that of a Sufi
concept, wuhdatul wujud, the unity of existence.
Much human suffering comes when one assumes others are not like him, or her, because they are fundamentally different. This is essentialism, the idea that there is essential difference between people. It is the opposite of mu, or wuhtul wujud, for these concepts suggest the emptiness of essential difference thesis.

The difference is a consequence of one’s actions,
particularly those that has been repeated and established themselves as his or
her modus operandi, not of an essense.

Thus, when one treats others as if they are like him or her, many complications disappear. Street smart people are essentially people who treat others as they treat themselves. They don’t recognize the difference between talking to themselves and talking to others, because they assume it is the same, and there is nothing else, this is mu or wuhtul wujud in action. If such communicaiton works, then it is an aha moment.
