[QUOTE="angrisha, post: 188941, member: 12238"] Fear is defiantly an interesting topic.... Fear for me, whenever it does arise is always a moment where I have to see actually what is actually driving that fear. More often than not, what we are afraid doesn't really exist in this present moment. Sometimes it our past that creeps up and causes it, sometimes its something in the future that were thinking of losing.... so I often find my mind will make up fear. That being said, I think it defiantly serves as a place of contemplation and learning. For me currently, where this tends to come into play is full faith. In the sense that, no matter what happens it is in accordance with what the universal plan is for me. So, if you can truly surrender yourself to "GOD" then there really is nothing to fear. The question becomes with fear, you can actually convince yourself that, whatever you are mentally afraid of is real right now. What happens then we actually have a physiological response (anxiety) to something that isnt even actually occurring at the moment, but our bodies cannot tell the different it will react the same way. Anytime, fear arises I think the important question to get to is, what is this here to teach me? There is a reason why your experiencing it, and finding out what it is, is important. This is an interesting thought, I havent associated fear with Ego in a while. I wonder, what about in situations where where there is no loss of social status, money etc. but your afraid because of an experience of an similar situation you had in the past and how that had turned out? (for example: Trauma? when someones gone through something traumatic and they're faced with a similar set of circumstances... or trigger situations) I wonder if that is still considered ego, because your judging it to be the same as before? Ego is an complex term as well, so I think ill have to consider this a bit further. I think Gurbani repeatedly tells us this, to turn ourselves to sat guruji and what we fear will be erased. You are absolutely right that we need to give it time, sometimes I find we'll only come into understanding when we are ready to receive the lesson fully. For me, I know personally this idea of complete faith is something that has come up repeatedly over the past few months. It is definitely something to be cultivated to live in that state that where your completely joined with sat guruji 100% of the time. For me, what trips me up is my Ego- things not happening quick enough so patience as been a big lesson for me lately, and giving up the idea that I'm in control. Question: How do you overcome fear in such away that it actually is put to rest? I think so many times ppl (including myself) may just forget/ignore a fear until were faced with it again... so even when a fear isn't present it is still there... so what do you propose is the best way to deal with fear when it arises to not have it come up again?
