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

[Marko Podgorsek]

It means that we have to ‘reject’ everything we can perceive or feel or think and choose the alternative that we don’t perceive in any way. It’s like leap of faith. In other words, we choose something above our nature. We learn this wisdom so that we reduce the ‘anxiety’ and we choose the alternative, because we learn that Creator is Good that does Good and that all will be well.

Shifting from an egoistic perception of reality to a perception based on bestowal means to forego self-love for the  love for one’s fellow.

[Ricki]

to shift from an egoistic perception of reality to a perception based on bestowal means the process of learning how to correctly relate to nature above one’s ego and will to receive, all for the sake of Love. The shift implies there is a desire to come closer to the creator, and to obtain this one must adjust their intention to replicate His qualities.

[Peter]

It means replacing the intention to receive for one’s own sake with the intention to receive for the Creator’s sake.

It means that I am living a life of slavery with the intention to bestow so that I can develop equivalence of form with the Creator.

[Kenneth Alexander]

It means rather than trying to take everything for myself and my benefit, to begin and restrict my intake of pleasures for pleasures sake, and to begin to put myself in an environment where the Ego’s desires are a lot more visible and known, rather than just letting myself get taken for a “blind ride” by my ego.
