Question: We understand that all things are empty, there is no self, me and no you, so why do we need mindfulness and renunciation, or in other words, what do we practice for?

We should know the truth of non self, no self or no I no you not mine not yours, with the stronger power of mindfulness and detachment. Knowing the truth of no self or non self with ignorance and attachment is not right, not complete. Ignorance and attachment can give us wrong message about non self or no self. The present question of why should we practice meditation or mindfulness and detachment if there is non self or no I is also created by ignorance and attachment.

Ignorance and attachment cannot understand the reasons why we should do good deeds or practice mindfulness and detachment. Only the stronger power of mindfulness and detachment could understand the question clearly. Thats why we should practice mindfulness and detachment by doing all kinds of good deeds with right understanding about non self. In this way, there will be no more questions like this in our mind.
