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

[Diane]

Loving thy Neighbor, but also with realistic spectacles of if their neighbor is more egotistical that you still live in the corporal world

[Greg]

Loving thy neighbor  and bestow to please the Creator. This may mean doing things for the good of the group versus just for your own benefit

[Milo!]

One thing I experience and I profoundly believe in, it is the JOY OF GIVING.

Indeed there is a certain sense of fulfilment I feel when I give.

The Holy Bible is full of examples about the JOY OF GIVING.

It says:

“It is more blessed to give than to receive,” : Acts 20:35

“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” : 2 Corinthians 9:7

“A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed,” : Proverbs 11:25

“Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the same measure you use, it will be measured back to you” : Luke 6:38

“He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn is exalted in honor” : Psalm 112:9

 

[Silvana]

Working with the ego. Finding the middle path so that one can see the truth.

[Gloria Ezra]

Realization.

[Yvette Lanausse]

To transition from a self-centered perception of reality to one grounded in altruism entail softening the heart and seeing oneself as part of the other. working to align oneself with the vision of the creator. And a lot of practice!
