The Buddha said:


You should (also) practice the establishment of mindfulness (by saying)
"I will look after others."

Looking after oneself, one looks after others.
Looking after others, one looks after oneself.

And how does one look after others by looking after oneself?
By practicing (mindfulness), by developing (it), by doing (it) a lot.

And how does one look after oneself by looking after others?
By patience, by non-harming, by loving kindness, by caring (for others).

(Thus) looking after oneself, one looks after others;
and looking after others, one looks after oneself.

SN 47.19
