Preparation Prompt: What does transitioning from a self-centered perception of reality to one grounded in altruism entail?

[Anna]

Is it the integration of everything and everyone into the sense of self?

[Angel]

I think it is reminding myself we came from one soul, and to treat others the way I want to be treated.

[Yelena]

I think that the first step is courageous honesty in what emotions and thoughts arise in us when we are in the presence of the feelings, deeds and realities of others. To be clear when we compare (ego), envy (ego), judge (ego), desire (ego). It is important not to fall into despair at this point but maybe to be a good scientist – observing without self-judgement (still ego) but with clarity and curiosity to experiment with how it feels to be without these reactions, and what I can bring in place of them into this situation.

[Tiiu]

I think observing my thoughts and actions and seeing my intentions helps correct the ego’s inherent desires.  If my intention remains to help others and see them succeed in spiritual growth, it counts as altruism. It does not always mean I have to give someone something or do something, even though its also good. Desire to be more like the Creator puts me on the right path.

[Charlene]

Accepting the interconnectedness of everything in our world. Knowing that what affects one will ultimately  be felt by all. I wish to truly be able to live that.

[INNOCENT]

knowing that we interconnected to each other
