In this DeepCast, Gary Zukav turns the lens inward with one of the most fundamental questions a human being can ask: What are you? Drawing from the perspective of the new consciousness, Gary invites listeners beyond the limitations of the intellect and five-sensory perception, inviting them to see themselves not as personalities born on a date and destined to die - but as immortal souls and unique expressions of a universe made entirely of love.

At the heart of this episode is a distinction that changes everything: the difference between the "little you" - the personality, the name you carry, the self that will one day leave the Earth School - and the "big You," the soul that is eternal, exists in non-physical reality, and is always home. The new consciousness now makes it possible to experience both at the same time. Yet most of us remain anchored in the old consciousness, where identity stopped at the edges of the physical body and power meant manipulation and control.

Gary offers a profound reorientation: you are your perceptions, a unique expression of the Universe, and above all, you are love - and every choice you make, in love or in fear, shapes what that unique expression becomes.

What You’ll Discover in This Episode:

(02:49) — Gary introduces the distinction between the "little you" (personality) and the "big You" (soul) - two aspects of the self that the new consciousness now makes it possible to experience at the same time - and why this changes everything about identity, power, and what it means to be alive in the Earth School.

(05:48) — Gary reframes the difference between love and fear not as morality or ethics, but as an energetic difference in who you are - and explains how aligning personality with soul is the new consciousness definition of authentic power.

(08:56) — Gary shares the teaching that transformed his own experience: you are your perceptions. This insight opens the door to experiencing the universe not as something outside of you, but as something you are.

(11:51) — Drawing on the words of Jesus - "the kingdom of heaven is within you" - Gary illuminates what it means to be a unique expression of the universe, and why the intellect alone was never designed to take us there.

(17:59) — Free will is the power to choose love or fear in every moment. Choices rooted in fear create painful, contracting consequences; choices rooted in love create healthy, expansive, creative experiences - and together, those choices become your unique expression of the universe.

(24:11) — Gary closes with an invitation to experiment with choosing love - not romantic or sentimental love, but the love that is what you are - and shares his practice of following deep meaning as a compass for authentic living.

Embrace the Soul Step Challenge

Take out your notebook and sit with the question Gary poses in this DeepCast: What are you? Begin with the words, "I am my perceptions." Sit with that for a few moments. Notice what you see, what you hear, what you feel - and notice that there is no separate "you" standing apart from those perceptions. Then ask yourself: in the choices I made today, was I acting from the big You - love, harmony, reverence for life - or reacting from the little you, from fear? Write down what you notice, without judgment. That honest awareness is where the creation of Authentic Power begins.
