...Continued From Dealing With Fear Part 3
General Information About Fear
The universal truth that we are all magnificent beings of light and powerful
creators is not easy to swallow when you are feeling like a victim. You may need
to play with the concept that you create your own reality as a hypothesis and
simply discover, from your experiences and experiments, the enormous power you
have. It is what you believe and focus upon that determines what comes into your
life. This is the central point to understand.
If you have accepted the basic idea that you can create what you want but
don't see how to make it work for you, the companion workbook on Manifestation,
by Toraya Ayres can help.
The fact is that much of the process of dealing with fear is a matter of
giving up victimhood and mastering conscious creation from the inside out.
If your fear is of an outer event in the future, then look to see what you
have focused upon inside. You may prevent the event you don't want by focusing
upon what you do want. Shift your focus.
If you are unsure about what you want and clear about what you do not want,
ask for assistance from your Higher Self and use the exercises in this workbook.
This kind of situation usually means a need for some kind of emotional healing.
It is following your excitement that guides you on your spiritual path. If
your feelings are not easily available to you, some kind of emotional healing
is needed to allow them to come more clearly into your consciousness. It is
better to ask for help in any case, as you seek the path of greatest fulfillment.
Fear as a feeling of separation
In essence, fear is cause by a sense of separation from the universal life
and loving spirit in which all of physical and non-physical manifestation
is One. There are no exceptions to this. Learn to take note when you are
feeling separate, whether from other people, nature, God or spirit. To be
free of fear, you will need to be willing to allow different beliefs and
concepts into your mind. This feeling of separation is a false perception
built into third density experience but one you are capable of moving beyond.
As earth moves through her ascension process we are all clearing fear from
our systems and making room for more light, love and trust. Sometimes the
clearing will take the form of physical illness.
Fear of our power, fear of enlightenment
As Marianne Williamson has reminded us in a quote often attributed to Nelson
Mandela, "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our
deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not
our darkness that most frightens us."
Fear of lack of love or light
Fear comes when you forget that light is a thousand times more powerful than
darkness.
And love is the most powerful force in the universe. If you attempt to solve
a problem in an unloving way, either by not loving yourself, or by using unloving
communications with another, you will probably feel fear. This is because self-betrayal
is involved. If you balk at looking into the dark side of a situation, you
will feel fear. This kind of fear disappears when you move straight into the
unknown, willing to see and know what is there. The heart of the unknown is
light even if you have to go through darkness to find it.
"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff shall comfort me." (The
Twenty-Third Psalm)
Fear caused by giving away your power
Be aware of any area of selfhood in which you have given away your sense of
personal power, whether to another person, the other sex, the government,
a religion, a philosophy, the ETs, or a credit card company! You are a sovereign
entity, responsible for what you create, with access to unlimited love, power
and wisdom. At this time on Earth, you are in process of bringing all the
parts of yourself home to integrate them. The powerful being you are can
live without struggle and effort.
Fear caused by accepting negative or limiting beliefs
Fear can be caused by lack of trust in yourself. It can be caused by seeing
others as potential victims (not trusting the divinity within them), fearing
loss, forgetting the bigger picture in which all is divine, not setting personal
boundaries, and so forth.
These are all examples of the results of accepting some kind of negative/limiting
belief. In that area of life, it seems that fear is unavoidable. "Proofs" of
this will be in your mind but what you have forgotten is that the "proofs" were
collected after the decision to view yourself or the world in a certain way,
usually in childhood; perhaps in a previous life. This can be changed with
a redecision. Fear is, in 99 cases out of 100, created by the way you are thinking/believing
and has no basis in immediate external reality.
The exception is when you are dealing with something already set in motion
by your beliefs or a previous soullevel agreement, or your current focus of
consciousness. If so, then you need to remember your power is always in the
Now and you can change any experience by changing your state of being (deep
breathing and a new focus of attention, for example) which will automatically
shift your perception and experience.
This statement applies to ET
abduction experiences as it does to anything else. For more information
on how to deal positively with repeated ET abductions, see Lyssa
Royal's book, Visitors From Within. Be alert also to the increasing
literature from people who have managed to move from terror to love in their
relationships with ETs. Joy Gilbert's account, It's Time To Remember,
is an example.
It is quite possible to see something positively that you had previously
interpreted in a negative way.
Each of us has the ability and responsibility to control not the external
world but the internal one. That applies to where you place your attention,
what you think, what you believe, what you fantasize. This is how you create
your personal reality. You cannot control the feelings, thoughts or actions
of others, nor do you have that responsibility.
That means that the temptation to manipulate others or control events in
your external world is based on fear and a misinterpretation of where your
power lies. The changes you want cannot be achieved through such manipulation.
You are not responsible for making others feel good. They will, however,
automatically feel lifted if you have taken responsibity for your own good
feelings and expressed them. On the other hand, you will not feel good if you
intentionally do things which you know will hurt or provoke. And such actions
draw similar events to you from others through the law of attraction.
You are always responsible for your intent, loving or not, conscious or unconscious.
You are responsible for finding and expressing the happiness which is inherently
within you. You cannot place the responsibility for that upon anyone else.
Other people do not have the power to make you feel good or bad, unless you
give that power to them. You can choose to respond rather than react as you
gradually heal the inner wounds that provide buttons for others to push. Infants,
young children and the elderly are vulnerable because they do depend upon you.
The power of their beliefs for them and yours for you still operates, though.
As a sovereign expression of divinity, you have access within yourself to
unlimited joy, abundance, love, knowledge and creativity. You are never alone.
You always have access to loving assistance from your Higher Self or other
wise beings in the non-physical realms in addition to your personal resources.
In other words, you are responsible for creating happy or unhappy experiences
and asking for help when you need it. Remember, humans frequently choose to
learn through drama and fear is often frozen excitement!
To summarize
Remember four things.
- All of your outer life is a reflection of your inner life. It is only
by making an inner change that you will be able to obtain an outer one. Do
that before you take action in the outer world.
- There is only Now. Your experience of the past and future are created
from the present moment. Bring all of your energy focus back into the Now.
This is where you have power to heal, to make changes and to create. Is there
anything to fear in this moment?
- Remember the Oneness. Everyone and everything is part of you and you are
a part of them. Send unconditional light, love and acceptance to the landlord,
the bill collectors, the angry spouse, the viruses in your body, or whatever
appears in your dreams. They are all reflections of portions of your consciousness
or they would not be in your life. To learn to dialogue with these elements
in your life and to understand their roles better, use the method described
in the Dreamwork Dialogue manual by Carly Ayres.
- Remember love. The secret of life is in learning to love all of yourself.
That means the whole world and then the whole universe. Loving, allowing
and accepting your own feelings automatically guides you and changes your
relationships and manifestations.
The ultimate secret of freedom from fear is opening the heart to complete
surrender to the Higher Self, learning total trust.
The secret of becoming free after feeling fear is moving back into your power,
recalling the larger picture, relaxing into higher vibrations, following the
guidance from your Higher Self which is always given, and learning to view
the situation as your Higher Self might see it.
Hold to the positive vision of potential fulfillment for your life which
spirit is giving you no matter what is happening. All will be well in the end.
