      Shifting from reasoning of the ego to reasoning above the ego.

      To not take anything personally and love and treat another like you would yourself.

      Shifting my perspective from “what’s in it for me?” to “what’s in it for the Creator?” I don’t know how to be grounded in altruism in a spiritual manner and not a corporeal manner (in day to day life, since we are all egoists). I am hoping Kabbalah can teach me this.

      For me the self-centered mindset ONLY thinks about what benefits it. The mentality is “look at me” how talented, intelligent, beautiful I am. Look at what I have achieved in life, be it materially, educationally or even spiritually. This is NOT what the Creator wants for his creation

      He wants us to love and consider others. We must change/correct our inherent egoistic nature which is one of receiving only for oneself to a nature of bestowal, which imitates the quality of the Creator. We do this by our study of Kabbalah and adopting a higher force or Upper Light that transforms human nature.

      Keeping the ego in-check to learn to properly relieve in order to bestow

      Perhaps it’s as simple as less is more. I can slave away to own a home on a quarter acre of land that enslaves me like a prisoner in a box or I can choose to live differently and gain the entire world as my backyard.
