      It is to understand that we all are interconnected. We all have needs and we all want to give to other’s needs. This is shown in nature, everything is interconnected and one gives to the other and viceversa. As humans we are called to do the same. When we learn to do that we will live in peace.

      My answer to this question is a circular response. Even when I want to have the reaction of bestowal on someone it is still for my own selfish reasons. I’m still getting something out of it. Even if I truly want to give to someone I still benefit from their response to my gift. So even though my bestowal was “honest”. I still got something out of it. No matter how much I appear to be bestowing I am still doing it for an egoistic reason.

      An egoistic perception of reality would be you receiving whatever you desire and a bestowal perception would be a heart that is open to receive or not but most of all to give with out expectations to recieve in return.

      Wondering why one cannot succeed to bestow on your own. Why isn’t it recognized as bestowal either?

      I’d say it is the transition from someone who loves themself before all else moving to a person no longer opposed to nature or needing to set oneself  above others; rather, they work cooperatively with the world.

      to change  our desires  and actions,  not the will to reveice for  ourselfes,  but receive in  order to bestow to the creator,  to come to equivalence of form   with the Creator;   pure intention,  All is  in us  , this reality, nature,  the still, vegetativ,  all other human beings, we are one  1 soul, 1 heart,   its all in ourself
