Freedom In the Midst of Fear – Part I

Jan 28, 2009


One understanding of the spiritual path is relating wisely to fear. Our conditioned reaction is to feel aversion to fear and do anything but simply experience it. We discover freedom when instead of reacting, we recognize and open to fear with a kind, committed presence. While fear might or might not remain, with awareness, the suffering of being identified as a fearful self dissolves.

In Part I of this talk, we look at how to recognize the physical, mental, emotional and behavioral facets of the body of fear.
