Trust cleanses fear. Trust cleanses anxiety. Love is the outcome. When fear rears it's ugly head, the more often one turns straight to love and trust in that love, the sooner fear fades away. It's all about 'practice'. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650114323461268088.post-1273195349475019792018-06-14T09:37:39.676-04:002018-06-14T09:37:39.676-04:00Hari Om! Tat Sat!

Reading your offering ...Dear "Anonymous",<br />Reading your offering brought to mind one of my favorite Hippie Gospel songs is "Get Together". It is indeed true that we "hold the Key to Love and Fear both in our trembling hands. Just one key unlocks them both." Yet, IMHO, sometimes for some of us, it isn't healthy to just dismiss fear and anxiety as "illusory" without opening to them deeply enough to explore the root causes and seeing if there is an action we can take to address those causes. The Practice, for me, involves opening to the One Love that is ultimately beyond all dualities. And, as you say, we are never alone in that. In Christian terms: "The Father causes his sun to shine both on the good and the evil".

Awakening to 'reality' and in that moment to 'know' that all these outward stresses are an illusion, that we are never facing the illusions alone, is in itself, facing the fear head on with trust in love.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650114323461268088.post-39269698890524920732018-06-09T11:49:58.990-04:002018-06-09T11:49:58.990-04:00Beautifully profound and extremely beneficial insi...Beautifully profound and extremely beneficial insight into the world of our own fears. We ALL try too hard to find a logical reason behind many of our negative thoughts. Personally, and I am far from being an expert, I have discovered that taking time to truly look at the source of our attachments or unhappiness can more often than not, allow us to accept these as simply our own minds trying to subconsciously ignore the suffering these thoughts bring. If anyone, including myself by the way, finds that facing it when the suffering is too can also be put on hold until we learn to accept the slightly less painful negative thoughts. Then, with time and luck, we will find we are far more able to address the same issues with confidence that all we really need to do is look at it. Recognition of the true source can often be the first step towards releasing the negativity it brings us. As I have tried to humbly put across, it is different for every single one of us but the method, once we find it, that suits us best is actually similar in many ways to others methods. I do sincerely hope that each and everything being can find both peace and lasting joy from allowing our negative experiences to be our teachers and not our enemy. <br />In loving kindness <br />MatthewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
