Show Notes
In this Soul Snack, Gary Zukav asks where trust fits into everything he has been teaching about authentic power, multisensory perception, emotional awareness, and non physical guides and teachers. His answer is that trust does not sit beside these tools. It permeates the entire picture and gives it meaning, bringing the new human experience home to your heart and your life in the Earth School.
Without trust in the Universe, a person lives in fear, never sure what will happen next, unable to fully laugh, give, or enjoy life. Trust arrives, Gary explains, when you see that everything you do in the Earth School serves the evolution of your soul perfectly, whether you are jealous or forgiving. You cannot quit the quest for authentic power. The only choice is how you will learn wisdom: through fear and doubt, or through love and gratitude.
The invitation is to relax into the knowing that all roads lead home, to experience the frightened parts of your personality consciously so you can choose harmony and cooperation, and to release your wisdom to a higher wisdom through prayer.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode
(00:29) — A recap of the journey so far: authentic power as the alignment of personality with soul, emotional awareness, and the gift of multisensory perception versus the work only you can do.
(02:50) — Trust permeates the whole picture rather than occupying one corner of it, and it is what allows you to laugh, give, and stop living in fear of what comes next.
(03:55) — Everything you do in the Earth School, from jealousy to forgiveness, serves the evolution of your soul perfectly; now is the time to inject consciousness into that dynamic.
(05:26) — You cannot quit the quest for authentic power, but you can choose to learn wisdom through anger and jealousy or through joy, appreciation, and gratitude.
(07:33) — The Universe does not work the way humanity does; it provides what you need to fulfill your sacred contract, not what your personality wants.
(09:57) — All roads lead home: relax into the counsel of your guides and teachers, and release your wisdom to divine intelligence through prayer.
Embrace the Soul Step Challenge
Think of a recent experience your personality would not have chosen, a disappointment, a loss, or a moment when things did not go the way you wanted. Pause and ask yourself: is it possible this experience is serving the evolution of your soul perfectly? What would it feel like to trust that the Universe is providing exactly what you need to grow, and how might you choose to learn wisdom from this moment through gratitude instead of fear?

Every day brings a choice between two ways of living: one rooted in gratitude and contentment, the other in anger and despair. In this Soul Snack, Gary Zukav explains what comes after emotional awareness, once a painful or pleasing sensation has been noticed near an energy processing center like the throat, chest, or solar plexus.
In this Deepcast episode, Gary Zukav takes on one of humanity's oldest fears: the idea that evil is a force loose in the world, something separate from us that can attack, tempt, or possess us. He traces this belief back through Christianity and Buddhism, both built on the story of a young man (Jesus, Siddhartha) who faced temptation on his path to a higher state of being. In the old consciousness, that temptation gets treated as an outside enemy, an independently existing evil that only an institution like the church can help you defeat. Gary argues this framing has always been a trap, one that keeps people dependent and afraid instead of powerful.
