Fear

Who never feel fear? I think that it is a common feeling. When we go to different paths into our lives, we have the fear for the unknown. Other times we don't know what will happen with people that we love. And this generates the fear of losing someone. Dr Taniguchi said that when we are hurt by others is also due to the fear:

'The reason we resent others,... is simply that we are afraid. We feel that our strength to live comes from the self. In short, we rely on finite strength. ... If we have the conviction that we are united with the boundless Grand True Existence, we are not intimidated by damage others might inflict upon us. That is because infinity remains infinity regardless of what you subtract from it. We may, for a while, feel the loss that has been inflicted on us; but when we learn to believe firmly that there will be an inflow from a reservoir fed by a spring of boundless life to make up for whatever has been lost, whether of health or wealth, we will find infinite serenity of mind - a peace and stability that come from the bottom of the mind...' (Taniguchi, M. 'Truth of life', v. 8, p. 7).

More than anything, it is important to reinforce to ourselves the idea that we are united with the Grand Life of the Universe, and therefore we are infinite and everything we need is given. There is no time and space, but just now: as the previous post title, the eternal now. Believe what is behind the eyes: the beauty, the silence, the peace and the love.
