Overcoming fear
Anger, jealousy, hate … these types of negative emotions are rooted in fear.
Nobody likes to feel fear, but when we do, studying it can help us overcome it.
Mars Sector 6 tells us how to do this in “The Nine Freedoms,” saying:
“Study fear for what it is. Study it coldly without emotion. You will discover that it is but a state of mind which you have formulated for yourselves. This state of mind is the result of Karma, environment and present outlook.
Karma — you can, at this very moment, make for yourself a Karmic pattern, which, when manifested, will not bring vague fear as a result.
You can rise above environment, for it is a changing thing, it is not real.
Knowledge gained by adherence to the Unchangeable Laws can bring to you that stage of Enlightenment which dispels fear. A state of mind can be changed at once for good or for evil. It is just as easy to have a state of mind unclouded by fear as it is to allow it to be warped by this intrusion.
Have this outlook upon Life. Act in this way and fear becomes non-existent.”
So the next time you have a negative feeling, study it. Is there something you are afraid of? When you understand your fear, you can overcome it.
Perhaps someone has made you angry. Where is this feeling coming from? Are you concerned about the outcome of a project? Is it your ego? What is being threatened?
Then go about making changes. Perhaps you need to send that person spiritual healing to mend the negative feeling you have sent them. Or perhaps you need to be brave and change what you can about the situation so that a better outcome is possible.
Something you can try
The better we are able to concentrate, the easier it is to control our minds. Prayer is one of the best concentration practices there is. Not only are you learning to concentrate, but you are also doing something positive to help someone else.
