Because of the identity of Buddha nature

Think of all beings, all the thousands, millions and billions of beings in the world. Think about how they all struggle in their lives, for food, water, shelter and security. Think of dedicating all the goodness you have generated in your life to their welfare. Do not hold on to the slightest bit for yourself. Everything, all of it, goes to them.
