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

Instead of doing or receiving for oneself, have intentions to bestow for the Creator or a friend.

It would be the first steps of our intended connection not just to our immediate contacts but to those we don’t know yet.  An awakening of our corporate responsibility through our intentions for the welfare of everyone. Looking at the devastating news from Israel as I write, this altruistic seismic change in attitude can’t come soon enough.

To start a journey to link with the upper world.

it would be a liberation, a tremenduous gain of energy and happiness. As the compulsive ruminations of the egominfd become a memory we will become able to feel more compassionate. By feeling the unity between all we become less fearful and spent less time worrying and anticipating problems. By becoming trustful we can live more in the present moment, which will make us feel more relaxed and aware. So we become more intuitive and can spontaneously translate our loving awareness into action. This  will certainly help our desire for bestowal, which will grow more authentic and deeply rooted. So we can slowly edge forward our goal to live permanently in a peaceful state of  flove. Then sharing will become natural and flow like water. During the process more and more good willed and like minded people will join and connect, thus uplifting each other and furthering the mutual progress of the group.

Connecting to the desires of others above ones own ego.

It would mean shifting the center of gravity of the locus of the “I” from this limited body-mind, to an expanded body-mind comprised, first, of the friends in the Ten until we reach such a point in which we think, feel, and act as “one man with one heart.” Once our fraternal unity is perfected and the transfer of subjectivity from my body-mind to that of the group partzuf is complete, “I” (in the capacity of my Ten) can connect to other such partzufim, who have also achieved spirituality, until the whole of Humanity is transmogrified and lifted up to the level Adam Kadmon, becoming a perfect vessel of reception-in-order-to-bestow, having achieved the quality of the Creator.
