When the fear is there, what happens?

Is fear " a problem " ?

If yes, what " makes " it into a problem?

Well, fear and problems go together. My particular problem is that I

have so called " valid " fears about my future economy e t c, but also a

constant layer of fear which I feel all the time. I suspect all people

have this constant nagging worrying-like fear, but this fear is often

hidden behing the hectic lives of most people. I believe this fear is

caused by the conflict between the thinking mind's wants for security

and permanence and the changing world's impermancence and seemingly

inherent insecurity.

Hi Anders --

 

Clarity isn't a state I can be in.

 

Clarity is what is, regardless of

comings and goings of various " I's "

who imagine states they can be

in and out of.

 

One actually doesn't have the option to

invest in time.

 

However, one may believe one has that option,

and so may try to maintain investments in

time which one never actually has.

 

Clarity, being what is, relieves that mistaken

notion of an option for an ongoing existence

in time, as one is now ready to drop dead, to fall

apart, to be.

 

And one can't manufacture the dissolution of what

one never had in the first place.

 

It's simply unavoidable this instant of " no self-replication. "

 

-- Dan

Yes, psychological fear is the basis for psychological time,

a primary fear being " I'll lose my existence. " But there

are other fears too, like, " I'll lose what gives me pleasure "

or " I'll have to go on dealing with this stress. "

 

Psychological time

has to do not just with the future (which is a projection

of the past) but with the sense of time passing, in which

things are gained and lost, for an ongoing self, which is

trying to establish its own security, and avoid its own loss.

 

Nonetheless, that self is nothing but the fear of not having

security, and of losing the basis of ongoing

experience.

 

-- Dan

era: Devi realized ?

 

devi: oh great era, you've found another opportunity to advertize me

as a self-realized being...

 

Devi posts all over the net, that she

did *realize the Self

 

devi: lets get more precise, i think i've mentionion it in guru

ratings, and here,,,maybe you can name a few other places...*all

over the net* is a huge lie...

 

era:what means of course, that her imagined state equals of that of

Raman Maharshi

 

devi: all realized being have realized the Self...some sit absorbed

in the Self like ramana or baba hari dass amachi, others just go

about raising families going to jobs...who knows...

 

era:I arrest my case !

devi: i wish someone would arrest you

era: -her own master Hari Dass denies all

her claims ..

devi: here is a perfect example of a person (era) who loves to make

up stories in her head, not only ignorant but totally

deluded....tell me, who did he deny my claims to, does he even know

i make any claim...i don't think so..

 

era: and so did the authorities set up to judge who are able to

think clearly

 

devi: ok, era, name some names...who are these authories? jody?

pete: Speak up or.... piss off. :)) Yar favorite word! I haven't

forgotten.

devi: i serioulsy don't like the term *piss-off* maybe i have

written it once..so you must have me confused with someone else..era

maybe....

era: no, not in my vocabulary

devi: oh really, well your heads always in the toilet bowl so i just

assumed...

 

devi: how did it feel to get thrown out of another club the other

day becasue you harass me..is this about the 7th club

you've been thrown out of because you are obsesseed with tryng to

hurt me, humilite me.prove that i am not realized...you do realize

that most everyone thinks your mentally ill..sad era...get some help

The funny thing about fear of loss is that it only a projection from

this now which is never lost. The now just is, complete, now,

including any projection. :)

How can there be any projection from something complete?

 

There's no place else to project anything.

 

Not even the idea of " completeness. "

If something can be complete, then something else is

incomplete.

 

Otherwise, there would be no way to detect, feel,

talk about " completion " or " being complete. "

 

If there is nothing else, there isn't anything.

 

If there isn't anything, there isn't nothing.

 

If there isn't is, there isn't isn't.

Normally I do. But it seems that the owner of this group has removed

this possibility. Maybe you can ask him.

Re: Digest Number 1545

 

 

There is only one mind and it is your mind. Any thought you are experiencing

other than this thought is not thinking it is an illusion. You have fallen

for the insanity of the ego. There is only one ego and you created it. You

did this when you denied your true nature and turned away from your self.

You had to create this ego self to protect yourself from seeing the reality

of yourself. This ego is everything you think and experience as reality. It

is illusory and thus has no real existence. That is why it makes no since

and is always turning into something else. This rift is healing when you

experience relief from suffering but time is neccessary to permit the

remembrance because if you remembered all at once you would experience it as

your reality disintegrating and panic. So you experience a gradual letting

go. The illusion begins to seem lighter and more transparent. The experience

is one of joy. This does not mean you have arrived just that you are going

back. When you arrive the dream vanishes and is not even a memory. It is

gone just like the memory of the dream you had two nights ago. You will not

remember it because it never really existed. This remembrance can not be

done without your spirit guides help. He will mediate the process over time

for you and bring you to the threshold. Once there the transformation is

instant and automatic. There is no biology nor is there a Master this or

that. There is only you making all of it up for yourself. You can dream it

anyway you wish and it will happen if you accept this fact totally. Your

doubt is the ego thought system you created. It is only a thought that

separates you from reality. It is an insane thought at that. Know this and

you will be in total bliss instantly because that is what you are and always

will be. Have no fear on this. Ask for perception of this and you will have

it. The key is you must ask and be willing to receive help. You are trying

to do it alone and you will spend forever this way. Save time, get help. Why

suffer this one minute more than you must. All this talk is a waist of time

at best and damaging and vicious at worst. Calling each other names is ego

centered attack based on acceptance of the ego's thought system. Use Your

spirit guide. Ask him to take charge of the ego for you and deliver it to

him humbly asking for help and see what happens. Stop bickering with

yourself, this is an ego set up!
