Are you making choices in love or fear? Take this self-assessment today to find out: https://seatofthesoul.com/cultivating...

In this episode of The Gary Zukav Podcast, Gary deepens the “What’s Real?” exploration, turning toward reverence - the awareness that life in all its forms is precious, valuable, and sacred. Beyond appearances, reverence opens us to the essence of others, ourselves, and the world around us.

Reverence is not simply another word for authentic power, though they are inseparable. While authentic power arises from aligning your personality with your soul, reverence allows you to experience life without cruelty, to see its inherent worth even when disempowered. It transforms how you perceive people, plants, animals, and even the most ordinary moments.

At its heart, this episode reveals that love and reverence are what’s truly real. When we move beyond personality-to-personality reactions into soul-to-soul connections, we begin to live with awe, compassion, and a deeper recognition of life’s uniqueness.
