What to Do About Disintegrating Social Structures


Listen Later

Humanity is undergoing an unprecedented shift in consciousness, and as a result, the social structures that have shaped our lives for millennia are beginning to disintegrate. In this episode, Gary explores the origins of these structures—such as education, healthcare, business, and governance—revealing how they emerged from human experience and were built upon external power, control, and survival. Now, as our consciousness evolves beyond the five-sensory perception, these systems no longer serve us in the way they once did.

Many may wonder: What should we do about these failing structures? The old consciousness tells us to rebuild, replace, or reform them—but this is not the solution. Social structures do not change by force; they evolve naturally as human experience shifts. The transformation of these structures is not something we can construct externally but something that emerges from within. Gary invites us to consider a radical and profound approach: instead of trying to fix broken systems, we must focus on changing ourselves.

The answer lies in creating authentic power—choosing love over fear in every moment. The only way to create lasting change in our world is by aligning our personality with our soul, practicing emotional awareness, and responding consciously rather than reacting unconsciously. When we transform our inner world, we contribute to the evolution of our collective reality.


What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
  • (01:14) — How social structures emerge from human experience
  • (04:05) — The role of survival in shaping human evolution
  • (07:24) — Why external power has become toxic in today’s world
  • (11:30) — The shift from survival-based evolution to spiritual growth
  • (19:02) — The only way to change social structures: changing yourself
  • (23:04) — How your daily choices between love and fear shape the world


    Embrace the Soul Step Challenge: Reflect on the role social structures have played in your life. Have you felt frustration, helplessness, or anger at their limitations? Instead of seeking external solutions, turn inward. Take note of moments when you act from fear—reacting unconsciously out of anger, jealousy, or control. Then, ask yourself: Can I choose love instead? How does this choice affect my experience and the world around me? The path to true transformation begins within.
