In this world of opposites we have dark and light, day and night, winter and summer, enemy and ally. Human beings seemingly have an infinite number of emotions, but according to psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, there are actually only two emotions – love and fear. All of our negative emotions can be summed up as fear. She further relates that, “we cannot feel these two emotions together, at exactly the same time.” Some people may argue that hate is the opposite of love, but hate is merely a byproduct of fear. It is fear that fuels the hate.
In the bible text that is revered worldwide, it is written in Job 3:25, “For the thing which I have most feared has come upon me.” I figured out many years ago that those things I was most afraid of, is exactly what happened to me. Whether we are aware of this fact or not, if we entertain thoughts about anything, that is what we manifest in our lives. As Dale Carnegie put it, “Fear doesn’t exist anywhere except in the mind.”
Would you be afraid of the Corona virus if you knew absolutely nothing about it? It is the job of the media to create fear and then to continue feeding that fear so that it grows into panic. The media has poisoned the collective consciousness, inserting fear and growing it out of all proportion. The dread and hysteria has spread across the globe. The only thing that can cast out this overgrown fear is perfect love. The only thing that is greater than fear is love. If we focus on love rather than fear, this unprecedented pandemic will disappear; as when we shine a light into the darkness. Are you helping to keep the fear alive? Are you feeding the fear and aiding its ability to thrive? It is imperative that we now turn our collective consciousness to love. We must love with all our might. Let’s turn away from the fear and watch love grow.
