Fear Not




Relinquish your fear as a Mystic this is your primary responsibility. Fear comes in many shapes and sizes. Fear can disguise itself as anger, sadness, depression, grief etc. If you are still during moments, if you do more than just feel those emotions, but you look at them deeply, you will see fear at their roots.


You fear loss of an object that you value, a possession. You fear loss of your reputation, you fear what is unknown…Yet none of these are real. You fear being wrong, you have identified your sense of self with your beliefs for so long, that when your beliefs are challenged your Ego perceives a part of its own self being challenged. When you discover that a belief or a dogma that you have clung to may be false, your Ego self fears that it is also false so it resists its realisation, this change, even in the light of evidence. Your Ego self is afraid of loosing a precious belief because your ego is afraid that it will loose a part of its own self. You identify yourself with your beliefs, you fear loosing. If a belief dies your Ego self is afraid that a part of it has also died as well.


Fear is the stumbling block of all progression. It is the stumbling block of all growth. It is the stumbling block of all learning.


You fear that the core of who you are as a human is somehow flawed. You fear that your actions or your thoughts have the potential to tarnish the eternal essence from which you are made. You are afraid that they tarnish your body and your soul, because you have forgotten the intelligences from which you are made of, you have forgotten your true self. You fear that god is just like you. That a god who loves you unconditionally is simply ‘too good to be true’. You believe that god has needs. That god somehow needs you to be a certain way. You believe that god somehow requires your worship to be happier, pleased with you. You have forgotten the completeness, the perfection and the wholeness of god and the Universe….and in this forgetting you are taught in your fear based religions, Jewish, Muslim, Christian alike to ‘fear god’…you even proclaim it…’Fear God’.


You fear death. You fear the death of your body and you imagine their could be a death of your soul as well because you have forgotten the pure intelligences which are deathless and eternal, beyond form and shape, indestructible and beginning-less in their essence…..and this is what you really are. You fear death because you have forgotten who you are beyond time and space.


You fear change even though every nanosecond of time is totally different from another. You seek stability out of fear of change, an expression of the fear you have in the unknown and what lies ahead.

Deep down below the conscious awareness of yourself you fear your own infinite nature, so you form an Ego self with a name for the infinite is just too vast for you to embrace. You give yourself a name , an identity because you have forgotten that you are un-nameable and infinite in your nature. You also give god a name. You try to encapsulate god in some limited form or shape. You give god perimeters. You create a make believe law or laws for which god is subject to. Some of you even go so far as to believe that god exists as a being, created out of the Universe itself. That the Universe is somehow older than god. That god is a manifestation of the Universe just as you are. These limitations you give to what is infinite, to what inefferable, eternal and unknowable in its essence. You do this because its true nature is too vast for you to comprehend. It scares you so you try to confine it and give it boundaries. You create god in mans image out of your own fear. You imagine that god somehow lacks something, so god has needs, has expectations and god has requirements in order to feel perfect and happy and complete. You fear that god is just like you, judgemental and one who only shows his love upon certain conditions. You believe that the infinite, the supreme, the eternal can somehow be tarnished and become less than perfect. You imagine that you yourself are imperfect and that if you are not purified of your imperfections you cannot associate with god because somehow your imperfections might rub off in some way and tarnish god. ….. Tarnish what can never be tarnished…and tarnish what can never be less than perfect. How presumptuous you are in this belief, how arrogant.

You believe that you are imperfect, so you believe that somehow parts of god can potentially be imperfect as well. You doubt gods essence from which you were made, you doubt its perfection. You believe that what you are made of, both your body and your soul, is separate and less perfect than god. You judge yourself and others out of your fears. You fear that somehow there is not enough of what you want in the Universe and that the Universe somehow lacks, so there is not enough of what you want to go around.

You fear that god doesn’t have enough love to go around for every person. That god must set up rules and expectations that you must follow in order to receive that which has no end.

You fear….You fear the Universe….You fear god….and you fear yourself


You Doubt… You doubt the Universe. You doubt god… and you doubt yourself.


These things MUST be relinquished in order for you to follow the mystic path of self realisation. That is why every self realised being, every Angel that truly understands the divinity of ‘all that is’……… The first thing that these beings say is:

FEAR NOT

FEAR NOT

FEAR NOT!!!



Peace and Love
