In this illuminating episode of The Gary Zukav Deepcast, Gary reveals one of the most empowering understandings of the Earth School: you don’t experience the world as it is - you experience it as you are. Your perception of every event is shaped by the part of your personality that’s active in the moment. Through vivid examples, Gary shows how the same circumstance becomes either a catastrophe or an opportunity depending entirely on whether it is held through fear or through love. In the new consciousness now emerging, the old barrier between “in here” and “out there” dissolves, allowing us to see how our inner choices shape our outer experiences.


Building on this foundation, Gary demonstrates how fear distorts what we see - turning neutral events into disasters - while love reveals them accurately. Whether facing conflict, disappointment, natural disasters, or global uncertainty, your interpretation reflects the intentions within you. This episode guides listeners to recognize frightened parts of their personality, challenge them, and shift into loving parts that see life clearly, compassionately, and powerfully.


The final lesson is this: you are the creator of your experiences through the choices you make. Because your choices are always in the present moment, you are never without power. The Earth School continually brings you to points of choice so you can fully develop authentic power, expand your emotional awareness, and live as the artist of your own life.


What You’ll Discover in This Episode:

(01:13) — The dissolving barrier between “in here” and “out there” in the new consciousness

(02:50) — How perception is shaped by fear or love, and why the same event can feel devastating or neutral depending on how it’s held

(04:15) — Why fear produces distorted, inaccurate interpretations — and how love reveals what is actually happening

(06:12) — How painful consequences repeat when fear remains unchallenged — and how choosing love breaks the cycle

(08:02) — Authentic power: choosing love no matter what is happening inside or outside of you

(11:11) — Seeing frightened parts as experiences — not identity — and shifting into loving parts of your personality

(13:20) — A Soul Step practice to track moments of fear-based perception and moments of clear, loving awareness


Embrace the Soul Step Challenge

Take out your Soul Notebook and write down every moment when you realize you are seeing the world through fear. Note the circumstance and the physical sensations, thoughts, and reactions that arose. Then record each moment when you clearly saw an experience as an opportunity to grow spiritually - when you perceived through love. As you read what you’ve written, ask yourself what you can learn and how you can choose differently next time. Don’t concern yourself with changing the world; focus instead on the choices you are making now. Honor every experience - pleasant or painful - as a lesson in the Earth School, and meet each one with awareness, compassion, and curiosity.
