You allow it to enter because fear does not enter as fear. Fear enters as something sacred and holy. Fear enters your life in the garb of godliness. Fear enters as responsibility; fear enters as attachment; as duty; as religiosity. Had fear tried to enter as fear, you would have blocked it. You wouldn’t have allowed it.

Fear is not intrinsic. Fear has been imposed upon the psyche, and you can immediately rebel against that imposition and cast it off, like this – “I drop fear. I leave it. I refuse to be subjugated. I won’t take the rubbish anymore.” 

Fear comes when they tell you that you must have a life insurance. Aren’t the commercials always telling you that? Fear comes when you are told that you must have a life partner so that you have a nice old age. Fear is there when you accept a job because of the career progression it offers. Fear is there when you offer to marry your girlfriend because now you need to legalise the relationship.

Don’t you see that fear is coming as love? 
Don’t you see that fear is coming as security? 
Don’t you see that fear is coming as job, career, future? 

Fear never comes as fear. But whenever fear comes, I repeat, it would make you uneasy. Your uneasiness is the hint.

Stop!

Stop, and pay attention. 

Attention is your friend. 
Attention will expose all the mischief. 

Just stop and pay attention.
