Love in the time of Covid Series – 2

Here is my understanding on how to Recognise and Witness Fear in the times of Covid.

  1. Fear of fear is more dangerous than the actual fear. Example – Keep saying/thinking i am not scared and never actually facing the fear.
  2. Fear is in fact the non-acceptance of something new that has come up.
  3. Staying in non-acceptance will increase the fear multifold and we will have to face bigger version later.
  4. Lack of power or being out of control brings fear. We forget that control is not serving us anymore and that’s why we are facing this situation of being powerless or out of control.
  5. Witness your deepest fear. An experience comes our way for telling something and we try to escape the experience. We don’t even let it show itself completely and we don’t witness it. All we try is to control it.
  6. Look within – anything in my life is presented for only our growth. Its meant to happen.
  7. In current times, life is moving at a comparatively faster pace and we have already become the part of that fast pace. We are just not able to accept it. Sickness and recovery, lack of support, death,loneliness etc everything is happening in the fast pace.
  8. Death is our deepest fear. Death is never accepted as part of our lives and these covid times are bringing that awareness and acceptance to a new level.
  9. We look away from fear of death and we never face it. We never witness it as transformation.
  10. Invest is heath, rest and peace. Health is my natural being. Peace is the acceptance of current and Rest is staying in total awareness. There is nothing what my body is supposed to be doing. My body is just doing what it’s supposed to be doing.

When a soul passes on, it has reached a level of completion, but we do not trust the process. It’s time we start trusting the process of death as well. Nothing is abrupt or unfortunate. It’s happening for a reason. Whatever is happening, is meant to happen. Accepting it will help in transforming self. Allow the fear. Just allow it.
