Commensurate with your sense of responsibility is your level of bondage.
Fear sometimes stops you from doing stupid things. But it can also stop you from doing creative or exciting or experimental things. I t can cloud your judgment of others, and lead to all kinds of evil. The control and understanding of our personal fears is one of the most important undertakings in our life. Helen Mirren
Most of our world’s systems are collapsing all around us; their foundations’ are based on fear, and control; not supported by a reverence for life, but rather an unending effort to keep us scrambling in slavery for survival.
Titles, medals, power, position, portfolios; have bought us. The longer the list, the deeper our internal level of fear.
Fear was to serve us as a navigational system, to be a part of our life, to keep us blissful by knowing what did not, but its purpose has been traditionally misunderstood.
All cultures are built on fear; we fear everyone, everything: skin color, religion, and race to mention a few. We concentrate in our differences, all differences, rather than our similarities and we are ready to kill to protect our fears of these differences.
Loosing fear is the challenge of OUR times.
Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom. Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970), Unpopular Essays (1950), "Outline of I ntellectual Rubbish"
You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you. Eric Hoffer (1902 - 1983)
Even the fear of death is nothing compared to the fear of not having lived authentically and fully. Frances Moore Lappe O Magazine, May 2004
