Fear and the ego

Fear is what destroys our relationship with others and within ourselves. It is a barrier that stands between our identification with the mind and ego and our inner knowing or awareness.

It protects the ego, but prevents the full awareness of our being to come shining through. It makes all our views one-sided.

Intimacy is destroyed by fear, as the mind and ego seek refuge in a defiant identity. It prevents our wholeness and leaves us with little comfort. It closes the door on mutual resolutions through understanding.

Fear is a card in the hand of life that prevents our growth into awareness and understanding of ourselves and others.
