I agree, that the era of egoism is about to end, but not through making altruism our new goal. You know, in my experience and also counseling many people on their spiritual path, altruism is a goal the ego has - it's its version of suicide. This is not how this will work out.
What we need first and foremost is self-love and then more and more until we are so full of Love, that we are naturally overflowing to others. This way, Love is not something we do, but has become our new way of being. We become so overflowing, that even the idea of altruism becomes strange in a way, because there is no way of preventing the Love from overflowing. So true altruism starts with loving yourself even more. What a paradox!
Much Love and thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️🙏

Everything is a goal of the ego. Every idea and thought, so is love, a fiction to sooth the ego and feel good. Nothing true can be conveyed on a mental level, but we must try :)
The purpose of existence is free will, which can only be achieved if we are 100% egoistic, and still chose to beg for more, to be able to love and nourish others. If our faith is pure in that this can be done, even if its not in favor of the ego, and if we only wants to change for the sake of creation, we will be changed. We will be able to let true consciousness enter our existence and by that true love.
It is all a massive paradox indeed, since it cannot be conveyed mentally, stillness is movement, emptiness is shape, eternal, infinite, all unimaginable constructs, way beyond anything that will every be written down or told by words :)
Peace
