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

[Danielle Vergonet]

I think it means to see each other as a whole and work together as a collective. So instead of wanting everything for ourselves, experiences to help en be there for each other.

[Marion]

It means that I start to feel that everything is ‘myself’, and therefore feel equal love for all.

[Mira Brooks]

I would say that it involves extending love and altruism to others and the environment, relating with qualities of giving and bestowal. Through that, we feel a deeper sense of connection and begin to understand how we should relate to others, outside of the selfish drives of ego or self-gain.

[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
