In this deeply intimate continuation of his journey, Gary Zukav reveals what happens when the boundaries between physical and non-physical reality begin to dissolve. Through his ongoing Spiritual Partnership with Linda Francis after her Soul's transition, Gary guides listeners through the paradox of profound presence and profound loss existing simultaneously. He shares the bewildering terrain of speaking with Linda daily while also aching for her physical touch - the five-sensory longing to hear her laugh. This is not a story of "getting over" grief; it is a testament to expanding beyond the personality’s limitations to discover a connection that transcends the Earth School's physical constraints.

The confusion Gary describes is not weakness - it is the natural friction that occurs when frightened parts of the personality demand the world remain as it was, while loving parts recognize a deeper intimacy emerging. His teacher's instruction seemed impossible: forget about missing Linda and enjoy life. Yet this paradox held the key to Authentic Power. The pain of the personality can coexist with the reality of the Soul’s presence, and the intellect - designed only for five-sensory perception - cannot reconcile what the heart already knows.

The solution Gary discovered was a Responsible Choice: to experience greater intimacy with Linda, he had to stop clinging to the old forms of their relationship. By setting the intention to relax into joy, he created space for a multisensory connection to emerge - one where Linda appears in morning light, in clouds, and in moments of presence so powerful they fill every cell of his being. This is the promise of multisensory perception: not the loss of those we love, but an expansion into experiencing them in ways the five senses alone could never access.

What You’ll Discover in This Episode:


(00:02) — The Vast Scope of Human Emotion: Gary explores the full range of emotional experience—from rage and victimhood to gratitude and awe—and why you are far more than any single snapshot of feeling.


(04:15) — Choosing Between Love and Fear: How the new consciousness gives you the unprecedented ability to distinguish frightened parts of your personality from loving parts, and to make the Responsible Choice of which to act on.


(06:50) — "Linda Is With You": The first words Gary's teacher spoke after Linda's Soul's transition, and why frightened parts of the personality demand the world remain unchanged while love opens to new possibilities.


(11:03) — Forgetting About Missing Her: The paradoxical instruction to "forget about missing Linda and enjoy life"—and how setting this intention opened the door to experiencing her multisensory presence more fully.


(14:34) — Seeing Linda in Everything: Gary describes the first time he saw Linda in the morning light through trees, in clouds, and felt her presence so powerfully it filled his entire being.


(18:14) — Beyond the Intellect's Limits: Why the intellect was never designed to understand non-physical reality, and how the new consciousness allows you to become what you are rather than just describe it.

In this transformative episode, Gary Zukav invites you to recognize your life in the Earth School as the grand adventure it truly is - unfolding in this very moment. Set within the context of humanity's unprecedented shift in consciousness, Gary explores how a new world is being born while the old world of external power disintegrates, and how both worlds are calling to your Soul. Through his compassionate guidance, he reveals how every experience presents a Responsible Choice and how awakening to this adventure allows you to appreciate your journey, your spiritual evolution, and even the frightened parts of your personality that challenge you.

The central challenge facing multisensory humanity is navigating between two worlds - one rooted in gratitude, patience, contentment, and awe of the Universe, and another trapped in the anger, worry, and despair of the five-sensory personality. Each moment of this adventure brings experiences that call for a conscious choice, determining whether you create from fear-based reactions or love-based intentions.

The solution lies in awakening to your life as an intentional adventure in the Earth School and appreciating each experience as a tailored opportunity to create Authentic Power. When love is chosen over fear consistently, the door opens to Spiritual Partnership with others who are also committed to living as aware, Universal Humans.

What You’ll Discover in This Episode:


(00:02) — The Leap in Consciousness: Gary explores the unprecedented shift in human awareness and the profound choice between the world of external power and the emerging multisensory reality.


(00:29) — Life as a Present-Moment Adventure: A deep look at recognizing your life in the Earth School as an ongoing adventure unfolding right now, rather than a collection of past events.


(00:57) — The Constant Invitation to Choice: Understanding how the Universe continuously presents experiences that require a Responsible Choice between the frightened and loving parts of your personality.


(01:49) — Appreciating the Curriculum of the Soul: Gary explains how awakening allows you to appreciate your own journey and those who challenge you as potential Spiritual Partners in the creation of Authentic Power.

In this profoundly moving conclusion to his personal journey, Gary Zukav continues the story of his Spiritual Partnership with Linda Francis. He guides listeners through the beauty of their 27 years together - a laboratory of Authentic Power - and the night of Linda’s transition, when her Soul completed its curriculum in the Earth School. Through memories of global adventures and quiet moments of belonging, Gary reveals how the unbearable agony of the personality can become a powerful invitation to multisensory awareness.

As Gary reflects on their travels to sacred sites and the simple comfort of their life, he illuminates how Spiritual Partnerships operate beyond the needs and dramas that characterize five-sensory relationships. Yet, even within this conscious partnership, he reveals how frightened parts of the personality can emerge unnoticed, showing why vigilance and the Spiritual Partnership Guidelines remain essential throughout the journey. When Linda suffered a massive stroke, Gary experienced a grief so overwhelming it challenged the very foundations of his personality - only to discover that this pain held the seeds of his greatest awakening.

The solution Gary offers is both stark and sacred: allow loss to dissolve the barriers of your personality so you may see your true purpose. In surrendering to the unbearable, he discovered that his only reason for living is to love people, waking up fully present in the Earth School for the first time. By embracing rather than resisting the agony of grief, he found not an ending, but a new beginning - a continued, multisensory relationship with Linda’s soul and a deeper connection to the non-physical reality that supports us all.

What You’ll Discover in This Episode:


(00:02) — Beyond the Drama of the Five-Sensory Personality: Gary describes how a Spiritual Partnership transcends the needful "ups and downs" and struggle to become a shared frequency of ease.


(05:30) — Global Adventures in Sacred Service: Gary shares stories of their intentional travels - from cleaning toilets in India to the stillness of Machu Picchu—and how these served the Soul's intention.


(15:12) — When Frightened Parts Emerge Unnoticed: A raw look at how unconscious patterns and the karma of the personality can surface even in a deeply conscious partnership.


(19:31) — The Transition from the Earth School: Gary recounts the night Linda’s Soul began its journey beyond the physical form and the profound presence required during her final days.


(24:13) — Grief as a Portal to Authentic Power: How the unbearable agony of the personality dissolved Gary's old world, revealing his ultimate purpose: to love people.

In this guided meditation, Gary Zukav and Linda Francis invite you into a quiet, inward exploration of courage as a lived, present-moment experience. Set within the larger context of multisensory humanity’s evolving consciousness, the meditation offers a direct way to recognize where fear is operating in your daily life and where love is asking to be chosen instead. Through gentle guidance, you are encouraged to turn inward and identify a specific area of your life in the Earth School that calls for courage right now.

This meditation moves beyond courage as an abstract virtue and reframes it as a Responsible Choice: the willingness to respond with love instead of reacting from a frightened part of your personality. By focusing your Total Attention on real-life situations - such as jealousy, disappointment, or self-judgment - Gary  and Linda help you bring Emotional Awareness to the parts of your personality that resist change, while creating space for compassionate observation.

The practice concludes by guiding you to imagine responding differently than you have before. By staying present with physical sensations in your body’s energy centers, the meditation supports a shift from fear-based reactions toward intentional, love-based creation - one courageous choice at a time. This is the foundation of creating Authentic Power.

Take a moment this week to pause when fear arises - especially in situations where you normally react automatically. Ask yourself: Where is courage asking to be used here?

In this deeply personal episode, Gary Zukav shares the story of how his Spiritual Partnership with Linda unfolded - not as a five-sensory romance, but as a profound spiritual awakening. Through memories of community, synchronicity, fear, and choice, Gary illustrates how authentic love emerges when frightened parts of the personality are met with awareness and compassion, rather than control or denial.

As Gary reflects on his early fears around intimacy, sexuality, and independence, he reveals how choices rooted in fear shape - and limit - the human experience. His journey with Linda became a living laboratory within the Earth School, showing that love is not possession or sacrifice, but a shared commitment to spiritual growth, presence, and truth. What begins as resistance from the personality slowly transforms into trust, vulnerability, and mutual evolution.

The solution Gary offers is a Responsible Choice: cultivate Emotional Awareness to recognize fear when it arises, and choose love instead. By doing so, you allow your relationships to become sacred spaces where Authentic Power can grow and the Soul can flourish.
