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

[Dora Francis]

To receive from the Creator with the sole intention to give back to him and to live our neighbour as ourselves

[KatieBug]

it means moving into a lab or environment in which we can discover the egoistic desires within ourselves and correct them. it means getting into a group that supports the same point in the heart, that has the same desire for spirituality. in turn this group acts as a mirror, i think of the point in the heart as a flower that needs the correct setting and care in order to grow to it’s fullest potential. you put the flower in a setting where it will thrive.

[Pedrini]

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

It means to be to know our own inner nature first in dept. Meaning that in order first to correct my true egoistic side, I must study it, to the point of understanding it fully, to one day being able to go above it and correct my very original nature, seeki g to equaliza myself with the creator.

[Ralitza]

In any given moment, we try to change the question we automatically ask ourselves: “What can this situation give me?” into a question: “What do I have to give in this situation?”.

[Joseph]

Focusing on the term to shift; meaning, for myself, is in the process of evolution and emergence towards becoming a spiritual creature.

[Maria-Julianna W12]

First the realization that in fact we don’t know how to love and give because we are made egoists by the Upper Force.  Then, by learning the pah of Kabbalah realize that “There is nothing else besides Him” and begin to consciously practice working on our bestowal above our ego to the friends but with the ultimate goal in our mind and heart to bestow to God through His Creature. And hence allow to all f us to adopt qualities of the Creator while building Adam.
