Fear is a non-existent Fantasma

An unrealistic perception of life is the basis of fear. People are not willing to live, people are not willing to die. Τhat was, is and will be, their whole predicament, and yours and mine, right now. Fear exists simply because you are not living with life. You are living in your mind. Your fear is always about what's going to happen next. That means your fear is always about that which does not exist. If your fear is about that which is non-existent, your fear is 100% imaginary. If you are suffering from the non-existential, ...we call that insanity. So, people may be in just socially accepted levels of insanity. But if you are afraid or if you are suffering from anything which does not exist, it amounts to insanity, doesn't it? People are always suffering, either about what happened yesterday or what may happen tomorrow. So your suffering is always about that which does not exist: Simply because you are not rooted in reality. You are always rooted in your mind. Mind, is -- one part of it is memory, another part of it is imagination. Both of them are in a way imagination, because both of them don't exist right now. Hence, when you fear, you are lost in your imagination -- that's the basis of your fear. If you are rooted in reality, there will be no fear. And if you are rooted in reality, you will live with utter love. And your imagination shall be projected and materialize into a new reality. A new simulacrum. A new eidolon. A latreia for the eidolon of the mind. You may wonder, thus why fear-mongering news is so effective.
