The Unchanging Witness of All Experience

Wednesday 30 April 2025

What Is Fear and Why Does It Persist Within Me?

"Why do I experience a deep existential fear, and how should I approach it? Rupert says: ‘The fear is one of the root emotions of the separate self, the apparently separate self or ego . . . The remedy for it is not to do anything to the fear, but to recognise that aspect of yourself that is already and always inherently free of that fear . . . Don’t embark on a spiritual practice in order to get rid of the fear, because then you’ll just be colluding with it subtly and perpetuating it . . . The separate self longs for that disappearance, but it also fears it, because it realises that it will die or dissolve into that experience.’"
