The Gary Zukav Podcast

What is a Universal Human?


Listen Later

In this powerful episode of The Gary Zukav Podcast, Gary takes listeners beyond the concept of multisensory perception and into the next evolutionary step in human consciousness—the Universal Human. As he explains, humanity is currently undergoing a monumental shift from five-sensory awareness into multisensory awareness, and already, something even greater is pulling us forward. Through personal stories and illuminating insights, Gary offers a glimpse into what it means to be a Universal Human—and how we are all being called to embody this transformation.


While the current stage of human evolution allows us to sense the world beyond our five senses and align our personalities with our souls (what Gary calls creating authentic power), the Universal Human represents an even deeper shift. It is a being whose allegiance is to Life first, and everything else—gender, nationality, race, religion—second. This emerging identity transcends all the boundaries that previously divided us, awakening a collective sense of love, interconnectedness, and responsibility.


The path forward is rooted in love. As we learn to distinguish between love and fear within ourselves and consistently choose love, we develop authentic power. From that space, the possibility of Universal Humanity becomes real—first as a feeling, then as  lived experience (truth).


Please do not take anything that Gary or Linda share as true just because they say it. If it resonates with you, experiment with it in your life. If it doesn't, let it go.

    Embrace the Soul Step Challenge:

    This week, reflect on the identity you most often lead with—your profession, your culture, your roles, your beliefs. Ask yourself: What would it mean to be a Universal Human first, and all those things second? Journal or record a moment in your life when you felt pulled beyond your individual identity and into a deeper connection with all of life. How did that feel? Could that moment be calling you toward your next soul step?
