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

[Joanne Kabu-W10]

It’s a shift in attitudes toward others. To examine and change my intentions to bestow to others instead only for my own benefit.

[Camila]

Changing from egoistic perception of reality to a perception based on bestowal means change our intentions, restricting the traditional use of our desires and start using only those we can work for the sake of the Creator.

[George]

The basis of bestowal is love. But to love someone as myself, which means to give what he/she desires to fulfill the other’s person existence. In this way we connect and fuse ourselves. This interaction should be deeper than just giving to fill good about myself, in other words to justify that I am a just a good person.

however, ego is all about myself. I want to be happy. I feel insecure if I give and don’t get anything for myself etc. This way I am disconnected from Nature and others

[Douglas]

Working for and towards the whole vs doing things only for myself. An identity shift

[Williams]

I am separate from all things  and everyone I think

[Henry]

In egoistic perception I think of myself as separate from everyone & everything. Perception based on bestowal means we all are connected.
