The Spiritual Purpose of Fear



IMG_2242.JPG

Every moment of life is a “prayer”. You are praying even when you don’t know you’re praying. To “pray” may be understood as a “Means to place conscious attention somewhere”. The focus of the mind, your attention, is your prayer in each and every instant. In an Enlightened state, every breath is a prayer to God, to the vibration of total acceptance, deep gratitude, infinite joy, and unconditional Love.

However, is it not the case that most people spend just a little time praying to God, and quite a lot of time in “prayer” to fear? I can attest to you that prayer is indeed powerful, and prayers of gratitude, happiness, abundance, and joy to God are indeed answered in kind. Likewise, so are prayers to fear.

Prayers to ideas of fear, attention on fear and suffering, attracts and manifests the very experiences the conscious presence has fixated upon. To pray to fear is to give fearful ideas energy. All manifestations of this world are simply energy; when unmanifested ideas are given enough energy, they manifest into form, into matter, and into actual experience. Your attention attracts, manifests, your reality.

So what is the spiritual purpose of fear, and the subsequent manifestations of suffering it produces?

This question provides a context for your Divine life purpose. You are a manifestation of the Divine, a slice of God, on a return path to the full remembrance of your Divine self. Every experience of fear and suffering is simply a remembrance of how to choose rightly, which is to say: How to choose God and choose the highest manifestation of the Divine Self, the realization of the True Self.

When the conscious presence chooses fear, prays to fear, that energy manifests life experiences that reflect a commensurate amount of suffering. Understand that you are the creator of ALL through the power of the conscious presence. When you fixate on fear, you choose fear, and therefore produce experiences and manifestations of fear, which is to create manifestations of suffering.

The spiritual purpose of fear in this world is to remember how to choose right-mindedness, to create with the mind of the Divine, rather than the mind of the ego, the mind of fear and separation. Right-choosing is to remember your Divine Truth through the transcendence of duality: You are not fear, you are not suffering, you are Love, you are Happiness, you are Divine!

The current state of collective human consciousness however often fails to recognize the power of thought: Many still do not understand that thoughts of fear, and their actions to create security from fear, actually manifest the experiences they fear most. For example, if you are fearful of another country invading the borders of your country, and you create an army to defend it out of fear, you will have given power to the thought of invasion and war. In fact, the creation of armies out of fear is precisely why the horrors and suffering of war exists at all! Without fear, there are no borders, there are no armies, and there are no wars. It is fear, and fear alone, that results in the manifestation of this form of suffering.

God’s Will is for all Humans to Release All Fears!

While this process of eventual freedom from fear is inevitable, it must be voluntary. Humans will remember, and reclaim, their Divine state, but the only remaining question is: How long will you take? How much more suffering will you create before learning to choose rightly?

Your natural and Divine state is one of total joy and freedom from suffering. The process of transcendence, Enlightenment, is to release any and all fears, to release any and all aversions, to come into perfect forgiveness, acceptance of all that is, to allow every breath to be a prayer to the joyful thought of God, rather than to the supplication of fear.

Prayers to fear manifest the realm of hell on Earth.
Prayers to joy, to Love, to God, manifest the realm of Heaven on Earth.

Humans have the power of free will to manifest whichever realm they choose, but why choose less than Heaven?
