Fear of Losing or Gaining of Understanding

Fear of Losing

Fear is always around some desire. A desire to achieve something, to possess something.

When we want to achieve or possess something, we have fear of losing. 

When we are in love, we want to hold on to that feeling of love so strongly, that we lose the perspective and want to possess that man or woman in our life.

Your dependency on that person makes you feel afraid that tomorrow you may not be able to hold on to her/him, as she/he may go to somebody else.

Yes we humans are alive. We keep changing, our thoughts, our perspectives change with time. We are not the same as we might be 5 years back. We are always evolving, our experiences change us as who we were and who we are now.

So this expectation to possess someone is futile. We can possess a corpse-then there is no fear, the corpse will be there. We can possess furniture, then there is no fear. But when we try to possess a human being, fear comes.

Someone who was ours yesterday is of someone else today and who is ours today maybe of someone else tomorrow.

Our fears arise from this desire to possess. If we don’t want to possess, then we would be free from fear. In our religious books also we are preached not to get entangled in relationships, people and possessions. All are false. The true wisdom is to be involved with life with no entanglements.

If we don’t have a desire and we just live the way life comes, it becomes simpler and easy to live. All that we have, we tend to lose it someday. 

If we don’t have desire to live, death doesn’t fear. If we don’t desire to go to heaven then there is no fear, then the priest cannot make us afraid. 

Life is about living fearlessly. It’s about living in the moment. It’s about living to one’s full potential so that there is no desire or fear.

We are born to be free. Our freedom makes us beautiful. The bird is beautiful with the wings soaring high in the sky. You encage it and it is no longer the same bird.

We are born to reach the sky as a limit, to breathe life in the sunlight, to face the wind and to enjoy the different shades of cloudscape.

Let’s just allow ourselves and others to live with freedom. Our consciousness is freedom. Sooner or later we tend to feel bored with the limited scope of life. We are born for expansion..to experience life to its full potential.

The way of life is to be non possessive, no desire to possess anything, live fearlessly, live to the fullest and live in the moment.

When we break through our fears, then we unleash our true energy which becomes our creativity. Our reason to celebrate life with joy.

When our self becomes unbounded, undefined. There is no fear.

Now if you ask me how to master it or eliminate it then my wisdom says this is nothing to be mastered or eliminated from life. It is just to be understood. Let understanding be your only law.
