Guidance From Yusef: Fear is Not Real

Posted on by

YUSEF:

Fear has no basis in reality either in this world or the next.  Fear is not of God.  Therefore, when you react to a given occurrence, something actually transpiring, with a response that is based on fear, you have moved from reality to fantasy and are then living in a ‘world’ of your own making, within your own mind—not actually existing in reality.  This of course SEEMS real to you, however, it is NOT REAL.

This reaction/response acts to cut you off from the reality that is God/Source.  The consequences of that are far-reaching and serve no one.

FEAR NOTHING.

FIND GOD/LOVE IN ALL.

The Fear that Yusef refers to in the Guidance is not the instinctive fear we experience when we are in physical danger, such as a when a speeding car is coming right at us.  The fear Yusef warns against is different from these.  It comes from our ego.

Ego fear tells you that the world is not a safe place.

Ego Fear lives in the past–dredging up all kinds of offenses you have suffered, and wants you to wallow in them–telling yourself the same stories about them over and over.  Or it lives in the future–worrying about what might be coming that will unsettle your world.

So, Fear looks like:  anxiety, worry, frustration, apprehension, suspicion, nervousness, depression, dread, terror, panic, despair, phobias, etc.

There is no judgment around any of these fears.  We can all identify with many of them. Yusef merely wants us to realize that they come from our egos and do not serve us. They are not REAL, though they seem very real to us. AWARENESS that they are not real is the first step to letting them go.

 

Guidance from Yusef: On Fear

Posted on by

For such a human emotion, and one that we are well acquainted with in our daily lives,  fear packs a mighty punch according to Yusef. This is the first of a series of posts on fear.

YUSEF:

Fear is the great evil in the world.  It is a sham, an illusion, unnecessary, and counter to love.  Fear is the block to Knowing and Love from the All, [and] from connection to Universal truth and abundant life. 

Peace and fear cannot coexist. Peace, real peace heals.  It heals all.  Its root is Love.  It is the fruit of Love.  It comes from Love, is the evidence of Love, and produces peace.

The world thirsts and hungers to know real Peace.  Peace is growth producing.  Fear limits, holds back, stops growth.  It is an evil concept that must be reversed for the world to gain peace.

People fear even the word FEAR because they have embraced it as natural.  We do not speak here of the natural physical reaction when the senses encounter danger to the body.

We are referring to the fear that grips the mind, spirit and consciousness, as well as subconscious. The Soul does not fear.

Fear is the emotion of the EGO, that which prevents you from knowing your true self.
