This passage makes the point of how we are all one. Not only with eachother, but with everything around us and every other aspect of reality as well. When we change, it is not really us that change, but the entire world and universe that changes as a single being. We are all different parts and pieces with different functions and purposes, but in reality, we are all the same- parts of something far bigger and incomprehensible to us.
We like to think of ourselves as individuals, and as our own beings, when in reality, we are nothing more than parts that make up a whole. When one of us changes, the whole changes. It does not matter who changes, it does not matter what changes. The change that occurs is never a change in an individual, but rather a change in reality, and a change in the universe.
I feel these are the points the reading is trying to make, and I feel they are very true and very relevant to our lives and understanding ourselves.
