Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Work: Constructive, Conscious, Purposeful, Planned, disciplined action performed with focus and without greed and fear. Consciousness in the action comes from the knowledge that one has chosen to do so by his own choice. Sense of being constructive comes from the knowledge that one's action is not engaged in destroying what one innately values. Lack of fear comes when I know that those who can hurt me physically, mentally or financially approve of what I am doing. In the absence of the lack of approval from the potential loss inducers, lack of fear comes when I have willfully, consciously, whole- heartedly chosen to endure any loss that my action might bring. Third way of functioning without fear and greed is to focus only on the action and relinquish responsibility of results to the Lord, the Reality, _what_is_. In this way, we take responsibility for our intentions and, surrender responsibility for results to the lord. We focus on the action without expecting any results. In the most pragmatic sense, lack of fear comes from adequate preparation which involves anticipating and preparing for and being open to all possible results - including fear!

'you' cannot prepare for anything. nothing 'you' 'think' that 'you' 'do' has 'results'. 'you' are just more 'result' of THAT Which IS. It has prepared a Promised Mansion for 'you'. but 'you' cannot go where the Promise IS or has gone. as soon as 'you' quit trying to 'prepare'. IT is already and always the Case and Abode. c'est vrai, quoi! ..b b.b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
