The Gary Zukav Deepcast

Are you making choices in love or fear?  Take this self-assessment today to find out: https://seatofthesoul.com/cultivating-love-optin/ A new consciousness is unfolding, and with it comes a deeper understanding of what it truly means to support another person from love. In this episode of The Gary Zukav Deepcast, Gary shares a powerful story from his time working with a circle of students. Through this experience, he illuminates how difficult it can be for individuals to express what they genuinely feel - whether their perceptions arise from love or from fear. His reflections reveal an essential truth: real support requires honesty, presence, and the willingness to see the frightened parts of our personalities at work. As the conversation deepens, Gary explains why withholding our truth out of fear of “hurting someone’s feelings” isn’t loving - it’s a reaction of the frightened parts, which avoid discomfort and vulnerability. True spiritual partnership, he emphasizes, is rooted in speaking from love with sensitivity and appropriateness. This allows both people to discover more about themselves, strengthen compassion, and cultivate authentic power together. Ultimately, the episode invites listeners to recognize when fear holds them back from honest connection - and to choose loving support instead. Speaking from love not only heals relationships; it also expands awareness and deepens our evolution.

Are you ready to live Beyond the Five Sense?  Learn How Here: www.seatofthesoul.com/beyondthefivesensescourse A profound shift is underway in humanity, and in this episode, Gary Zukav explores the question so many people hold today: How can I change the world from the new consciousness? He begins by illuminating the difference between the old five-sensory perception - rooted in control, manipulation, and external power - and the new multisensory consciousness emerging across the human species. This new awareness recognizes that we are more than bodies and minds, and that true transformation begins with the alignment of the personality with the soul. Rather than focusing on changing the outer world, Gary guides listeners toward the deeper, internal work that actually reshapes experience and expands perception. Gary then delves into the core misunderstanding of the old consciousness: the belief that painful emotional experiences come from the outside world. From the new consciousness, we see that the world only activates inner dynamics already within us. This creates a powerful opportunity - not to fix the world, but to identify the physical sensations of our emotions, cultivate emotional literacy, and choose to act from the loving parts of our personalities instead of the frightened parts. This is what creates authentic power, and this is how the world truly changes. Ultimately, Gary shares that the only way to change the world is to change yourself. When you become more loving, more kind, and less reactive, the world you live in shifts - because in the new consciousness, “in here” and “out there” are not separate. Transformation happens from the inside out, and every loving choice expands your awareness and the role you play in the unfolding evolution of humanity. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:30) — The defining differences between the old five-sensory consciousness and the emerging multisensory consciousness (02:05) — Why external power - manipulation and control - once served human evolution but now creates only violence and destruction (05:10) — How the new consciousness shifts the focus from changing the world to transforming yourself from the inside (08:45) — Emotional literacy: how identifying physical sensations in the chest, throat, and solar plexus expands awareness (11:40) — How choosing to act from the loving parts of your personality creates authentic power (14:55) — Why fear and love form the fundamental duality of the Earth school and how recognizing this changes everything (18:20) — How dissolving the illusion of “in here” vs. “out there” reveals that changing yourself is changing the world (19:32) — A practical Soul Step for noticing where the “barrier” between inner and outer might be disappearing Embrace the Soul Step Challenge Take a few quiet moments with your notebook and write about your experience of the “barrier” between your inner world and the outer world. Have you always believed they were separate? Are you beginning to sense that the boundary is thinner - or perhaps not there at all? Reflect on whether this shift signals the emergence of the new consciousness within you. Throughout the week, notice moments when you feel this connection more clearly, and let these insights guide your choices toward love.

Discover how intentional choices can transform your life. Download this meditation on Responsible Choice today: https://seatofthesoul.com/responsible-choice/ Humanity stands in a rare moment of profound transformation, and in this episode, Gary explores a question many are asking: Will artificial intelligence alter human evolution? Instead of approaching the topic from an intellectual or technological angle, Gary guides listeners toward the deeper truth - evolution has never been driven by tools, inventions, or external advancements. True human evolution unfolds within consciousness, and the shift now underway is not about smarter machines but about humanity becoming multisensory, aware of itself as more than a physical body and a thinking mind. As Gary explains, AI - like gunpowder, agriculture, railroads, television, or the internet - can change what we experience, but not who we are. The real transformation comes from recognizing ourselves as souls learning in the Earth School, perceiving the difference between love and fear within our own personalities, and choosing love before we speak or act. This inner capability, now emerging across billions of people, marks the beginning of a new human evolution that no machine can replicate or direct. Ultimately, the episode reveals that AI will not change human evolution because human evolution requires the heart. Only emotional awareness, authentic power, and multisensory perception can alter the trajectory of our species. Technology cannot evolve us - but each individual can, through conscious choice. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:30) — Why advances like gunpowder, railroads, telegraphs, television, and the internet changed human experience but not human evolution (02:05) — How five-sensory perception shaped human history - and why the shift to multisensory awareness is unprecedented (04:43) — Why tools, including AI, can magnify external power but cannot transform consciousness (06:10) — What the soul values (harmony, cooperation, sharing, reverence for life) and why technological speed or conquest cannot fulfill it (08:51) — What might happen when humanity gains the ability to travel to Mars with intentions rooted in fear vs. intentions rooted in love (12:37) — How new consciousness enables humans to experience non-physical reality and see life through the lens of the soul (16:31) — How choosing love over fear creates authentic power and is the real force that evolves humanity (20:00) — A practical Soul Step for tracking frightened and loving parts of your personality throughout the week Embrace the Soul Step Challenge Take out your notebook and, throughout the coming week, write down every moment you notice a frightened part of your personality - anger, judgment, resentment, withdrawal, superiority, or the need to please.

At the end of the week, read what you’ve written and ask: What can I learn about myself from this?
