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

[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.

[Brad]

It means that we understand that to come from the ego in fact only leads to suffering because we can never be truly be fulfilled by the things of this world. To try to fulfill oneself with material things only leads to the path of pain and suffering which is a much harsher way of correction then the path of Kabbalah.
