FREEDOM FROM THE ILLUSIONS OF FEAR

  Many people have this idea that if something causes us to feel sad, angry or upset, that we must ignore it, hide it away, or avoid it, at all costs. This is a New Age religion concept, to catch those who start waking up, before they awaken completely. It is this idea which gives birth to one of the world's greatest crimes - apathy. It is this idea which keeps people trapped in a velvet-lined comfort zone, where they cannot grow, reach their full potential, improve their relationships with themselves and others, stop the destruction they are responsible for, or change the world for the better. It is also this idea which keeps people addicted to pharmaceutical and illegal drugs, alcohol, retail therapy, and the approval of society.

Negative emotions have a purpose... they arise from within us to tell us that there is something which is not right within us - which upon deep investigation, can always be traced back to a fear-based belief. It is by facing these fears, that we are able to transcend them, and eliminate the fear-based beliefs which are holding us hostage, and causing the suffering and pain. Ignoring them, or trying to cover them up with some addiction, is like taking a headache pill for a headache which is being caused by high blood pressure or a tumour. Inevitably, it will return, and the high blood pressure or tumour will not heal, but become worse.

One of the greatest fear that people have, is the fear of facing themselves. Of letting go of the false illusions of security they have built around themselves. Ironically, it is these fears which cause the suffering and pain we seek to escape. It is by facing these fears, that we are able to tap into our hidden resources, strength and potential, and become more positive and happy.

Strip yourself bare of all the illusions and find a beauty beyond what you could ever have imagined... strength and courage you never imagined you had... ~♥~

ARE YOU A VICTIM OR A VICTOR?

Many people live with a victim mentality, which causes them to do things that don't make sense. It is easier for us to understand them if we understand why they do the things they do.

Victims find it very difficult to say 'thank you'. Although they may sometimes appreciate something, depending on their level of victimhood, they often feel that by saying 'thank you' they will be making themselves inferior to the person they are thanking. In many cases, the victim has such a high degree of this victim mentality that they do not appreciate anything done for them because they feel that the world owes them.

Victims often treat others badly, and when they are confronted, turn everything around so that they seem like the victims, totally avoiding what they have done. They lack self-responsibility. It is too difficult for them to get past looking at themselves as victims (the fear) to see the harm they do to others. They cannot be objective.

It is for this reason that victims lack empathy. They cannot see another's pain or suffering because they are drowning in their own pain and suffering.

This causes the victim to lash out at others through emotional abuse, physical abuse, etc. They lack the ability to see cause and effect, and thus see the world as causing their pain and suffering, rather than the pain and suffering they experience, being the consequence of their own beliefs about themselves.

Victims often resort to addictive behaviour such as the addiction to approval, retail therapy (consumerism and materialism), drugs, alcohol, etc. They do this to hide the fear they feel inside. These fears come in various forms, such as anger, guilt, superiority/inferiority, depression, and all the other negative emotions.

Victims cannot give other people compliments or praise, as they feel it will be giving away their own power... making them less. However, they are very quick to point out the negative aspects of someone or something. They do not understand that giving means receiving.

Victims see mistakes as failure, and fill themselves with guilt, instead of looking for the lesson which they need to learn. They thus make the same mistakes over and over again, and become more and more bitter. Heightening their victim status.

Victims fail to see solutions to their problems because their perspective of themselves, and the depth to which they can see things, is clouded by their own beliefs of inferiority (fear).

The victim status is a result of fear-based beliefs which keeps people in a state of lack.... of scarcity regarding their own power. These fears do not allow them to tap into their inherent source of power. Thus the solution is to identify the fears, which show up in our emotional state. All negative emotions result from a fear-based belief about ourselves. Being offended is the first sign, which is followed by anger, depression, and other negative emotions. If one can work up enough courage to face the fear and look into it to find the source, one can transcend the fear. The more this is done, the easier it becomes, and the more in tune one becomes with our inherent power source of awareness, intuition, courage, strength, ability to solve problems, etc.

Almost everyone feels like a victim in one or more areas of their lives. We need to understand that it is the conditioning that we have received that has created this victim status, and that we can discard it at any time. Nobody is a victim, unless they choose to be a victim...

Make a decision today: Are you a victim or a victor....

IS YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS A CREATIVE, OR DESTRUCTIVE FORCE?

 What is blame? Blame is merely the physical manifestation of your inner fears which create our outer perceived reality. This occurs on a personal level and on a collective level. What is outside is merely a reflection of what is inside. If a certain percentage of humans are in a particular state of fear, they manifest this fear as our perceived reality. These manifestations are therefore of vital importance because they tell us that there is something wrong. We therefore must not ignore them, but become aware of them. Self-responsibility requires looking at the problem, on the outside, becoming aware of it's root fear, which cause the symptoms, and fixing it on the inside.

 The symptoms are the things you see.... much like a headache is what you feel. How you see things is dependent on the fear-based belief system you have been conditioned with... much like the strength or weakness of the immune system you have built up through your consuming of healthy food or toxins. Humans are taught to take notice of the symptoms, and react on them, rather than to use the symptoms as a guide to the root cause, which is where problems/challenges are fixed, and disease is healed. The symptoms are only useful to us as guides to the root cause. As the headache is a warning of high blood pressure, etc. It does not help to keep taking painkillers for the headache, as the root cause will still persist, and the problem will become worse. It therefore makes sense not to try to hide the root cause by taking pills and not investigating further. Just as it is useless to fight the symptoms of politics, etc, without looking for the root cause of the problems/challenges.

Therefore, use the symptoms to guide you to the root cause, and transcend the fear which is causing it. The fear can be your very own fear, which is manifested in your personal life, or it can be a collective fear, which is manifested universally. If it manifests universally then it is because the majority of humans have the same fear, which is the result of cultural conditioning, brainwashing from television, etc. Therefore, if you have the same beliefs as the majority, you know that you are a contributor to this collective perceived reality.

As you transcend these fears, you will become more and more aware, and thus more courageous and able, to transcend more of these fears, making you a stronger person and a contributor of love, peace and harmony to the collective perceived reality. It doesn't matter how small, big, tough or weak you think you are: YOU CAN CHANGE THE WORLD FOR THE BETTER!!
