      To shift from an egoistic perception of reality to a pereception based on bestowal, means to start looking and acting towards situations with a non-selfish perspective, meaning that we think upon others first in any situation we are involded in.

      What does it mean to shift from an egoistic perception of reality to a perception based on bestowal?

      We dont know what is to bestoal, because we have a egoistic nature, so I dont know what to answer.

        I feel this. I wish I knew the answer! But we’re all on the way, together, thanks to the Creator.

      As the point in the heart grows and we move closer to the creator we need to begin connecting with each other and plant our seed if the fertile soil of groups such as kabU. This will support us as we move from the desire to receive to the desire to bestow. this will shorten our journey to equivalence with the creator.

      We human beings d0n´t know, because our essence is egoistic. We have to trust all the writings of the sages, and what the Torah tells us, and also the guidance of our beloved Rav.

      To shift from an egoistic perception to a perception based on bestowal is a shift from fulfilling individual desires alone towards a collective desire through helping others.
