The first step is to remember that my perception of reality is primarily guided by the biases of my Five Senses my ego and my will to receive, keeping this in my awareness allows me then to engage with what is in front of me with more responsibility and to respond rather than react with the intention to be more like the Creator and that means to see what is outside as part of creation rather than separate for me and to aim to act towards them with love
You can’t change others so you have to change within yourself. Show more compassion and understanding toward others. We are seeing our world through our eyes, others see world through theirs. Don’t worry about what others are thinking, doing or seeing as their reality. Their ego creates their world. Work on yourself to reach spirituality.
I might be late in understanding how to transition from egoism to bestowal. In watching and listening more carefully to the videos and after watching them three times, I believe I understand better regarding how to fix the egoistic desires. I have learned that one begins with fixing one’s relationships/attitudes towards others. I vaguely was able to understand the Point in the Heart. I understood the concept. However, I was not able to answer the question to myself on how to reach that Point. I understood that one had to desire,feel the way to the Point in the Heart, but how? Again, reaching the Point in the Heart has to do with fixing one’s relationships towards other and follow the values base on connection, unity, and bestowal. Mainly, what clicked for me was the fixing part that I believe I now understand.
On a point I did not get to comment regarding the video I watched from Dr. Laitman on what reaction one should have with evil people, something like that. I watched it twice and did not agree that it was so easy to forgive people who have been/are evil towards one. Dr. Laitman’s response was to have compassion on them even if that person/s were insulting one in our face. I watched it a third time. Then I watched a movie about the Holocaust and a boy asked a Holocaust survivor if he hated the Nazis. The man responded that he did not. He felt pity for them. That allowed me to review the cruelty that I am receiving from a certain person. I have only hated two people in my life. However, that hate subsided quickly when I realized I was wasting my time in doing so. Hence, I watched Dr. Laitman’s video again and realized that one needs to have compassion/pity if so towards anyone who is blatantly insulting one constantly. That gave me a lot of peace and now I understand and agree with Dr. Laitman. If we are to leave egoism and “hate,” one needs to transfer those emotions to true altruism.
