The Illusion of FEAR

We all know the feeling, the heart racing, stomach turning, pale faced, sweaty palmed emotion that just makes us feel 'yuck'....

BUT we all don't realize that FEAR is an illusion. Fear is created by thought.

How can the feeling of fear be created by thought you may wonder? Well, think about it. Say for instance there is a horrific accident, the moment you see it, your instinct kicks in and you just 'do' what you need to do. You feel no fear, until you think. This is when the be-ing within separates from mind, you slip out of the now, the present mindedness of be-ing, and allow the separate mind to take over the thought process.

Almost as if stepping outside your body and watching your body do it's own thing. At the precise moment you start analyzing a situation and thinking about all the 'what ifs' you get that feeling of fear.

Fear is ONLY felt when we re-live the past. i.e. resurfacing a memory from yesterdays far away, and playing the video clip over in our minds. Feeling the pains again and projecting those pains into the future thinking 'what if it happens again'....

Fear is ONLY felt when we try to live in the future. Only IF I do this. Only WHEN I do that. Oh my lanta, something like that could happen to ME. You are building a false image of what 'might be' but it has not even happened yet, and in that false imagery, you are actually 'feeling' fear of something that is not even happening NOW.

When you are 100% present, 100% NOW there physically is NO way to experience FEAR.

How to get into the NOW? We'll cover that in the next post...

In the meantime, The Universe Says...

"Living in the now, inhibits the possibility of fear. Stay present, live now, let the past be passed, and let the future happen when it is within the now."

Create it!
