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

[Hing]

To realize an identity shift… to shift from the illusion of being a separate person to being a quantum part of one Soul.

Egoistic perception – I am not connected, I separated myself from others.

The perception which is based on bestowal – we are one, we are all connected and for that reason, I should love my neighbour as myself.

It means shifting from the desire of fullfiling only myself to fullfiling desires in the name of the Creator.

[Shira]

It means nullification of the ego…can that be done? It’s almost an impossibility. Therefore, to remember that the Creator has, in His bless-d Grace, given me the understanding (Binah) to know that everything comes from from Him, i.e., the struggle to know how to bestow according to equivalence of form. Surrender to all could be a process, faith above reason. Overall, it’s not an easy shift from one to the other. In some forms, it could take years to be able to know you are giving back to the Creator, in order to receive, for the joy that stems of giving.

To love my neighbor as myself.  To feel the Oneness!

[Larry]

To us it means in everything that we do, to try and move intentions from I/me to us and we.
