Where does fear come from?

Posted on by philipdodson

So what causes fear? Not the fear of a real present moment danger, as we can always deal with that…now. It’s the fear that we can not deal with.

We do, we create it all through our thoughts. As soon as we project past the reality that is now, this moment, it is the future. The future does not exist, so it creates uncertainty and we create a psychological fear of what might be. That is a fear we can not deal with so it causes us internal suffering.

The energy that we focus, often continuously in our subconscious mind patterns, on these fears, actually transmits to all that we do and to the people and world around us. Thus, we create our thoughts and they manifest into reality.

What we fear, we create.

Lenses and labels

Posted on by philipdodson

The mind is a giant labelling gun that labels everything instantly, so much so, that in our unconsciousness, we do not even notice that it is happening. Then places the mind places lenses of filtering the world based on the label/judgement.

Try walking down the street or sitting in a room with others or even sitting in a room alone and not label things or people or what people say. Try not to judge or evaluate related to how it will affect us and our story.

The greatest form of intelligence is to observe without evaluation, and that means no judgement, no labelling…simply just observing and just being. This requires consciousness and detaching ourselves from the mind and its ego. We label everything through the judgemental lenses of our mind and once the lense is applied we only sense, see, feel, hear etc through that lense, so we do not actually see what is real, we see it through our mind’s lense.

The filters, labels and judgements of the mind can be removed by remaining conscious and by just being. Not feeling the need to evaluate everything.
