Fear
« on: July 05, 2018, 09:33:37 am »
Dear Jed, I hope you are fine!
You warn in "spirituall warfare" of the fear, that can be uncontrollable. Do you like to say something? How can we become aware here? Can we protect ourselves?
Best regards, Ingo

Hi Ingo:

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum. Fear may arise and it can be pretty terrifying, but depending on how much you are clinging to, it might be quite insignificant.

How about telling me a little about your experience(s) and I might have some suggestions.

Love ya, Jed.

Ingo

Dear Jed, thanks for the answer. I understood you so, that the fear can overtake you and you hide in a "hole" and prefer to remain a child, rather than grow up. My experiences with fear are almost 20 years ago. I had a burnout syndrome, that completely changed my life. This fear was unbearable, but helped me get out of the "hole". My "hole" was a spiritual community.
If I understand you correctly, I would call myself an "adult" who keeps struggling for truth. But I am not sure if, I understand what "fear" is. Jed, what is fear?
Thank you very much for the answer and best regards
Ingo

What would happen if you stopped struggling? Seriously, what if you completely gave up all effort?

Love ya, Jed.

Cheers Jed, now I sit, with a good beer, in front of the TV and wait for the enlightenment.  ;D
