In this powerful and timely episode, Gary Zukav explores how turbulent times - both globally and personally - reveal the deepest choices we can make. He revisits the spiritual lessons of World War II and its terrifying echoes in today’s world, illustrating how the pursuit of external power continues to create destruction. But this episode isn’t about fear - it’s about what is possible when we awaken to the truth of our soul and claim our point of power.


As Gary describes, the old world - rooted in fear, judgment, and domination is collapsing, while a new world of authentic power is being born. Standing with one foot in each, we are now called to choose every moment. Will we react from frightened parts of our personality? Or will we respond from loving parts of our personality with love, awareness, and compassion - recognizing that how we perceive others is how we relate to ourselves?


The solution? Our moment-to-moment choices to respond with love. This is the “point of power”- the sacred space where authentic power is created, and where transformation becomes not only possible, but inevitable.


What You’ll Discover in This Episode:

  • (01:00)— Why remembering World War II is crucial to understanding our choices today

  • (09:41) — What it means to align your personality with your soul—and why that’s the new definition of power

  • (14:03) — How recognizing and choosing between loving and frightened parts of your personality creates authentic power

  • (19:54) — The difference between judgment and discernment—and why it matters in political and personal contexts

  • (24:51) — Why changing the world begins with changing yourself—and how that’s more than just a spiritual idea

  • (29:51) — How love leads to lasting joy, while fear only brings pain and destruction—and why this choice is available in every moment

    Embrace the Soul Step Challenge:

    Reflect on moments when a frightened part of your personality was activated—through judgment, anger, or fear—and recall what you chose to do in that moment. Did you respond from love or react in fear? Write in your soul notebook the instances when you consciously chose love instead of fear—even in the face of misunderstanding, insult, or anger. And then, write down the times you didn’t. What do those moments reveal about the different parts of your personality? How might you offer compassion to both?
