The romantic quality of love, which is between separate entities, is a
doorway into deeper love. A lot of people experience a quality they call
love but theyâre doing it with their mind, theyâre not really opening
their hearts fully, they are loving, meaning I am attracted to⊠or I am
attached to.
When we talk about love versus fear for example, we are talking about âbeingâ versus âfearâ, or âunityâ versus âseparatenessâ.
So I would say that when the fear dissipates you are feeling at home in
the universe. Meaning your identity with your separateness isnât
overriding your feeling of connection with everything to the point that
youâre feeling cut off and vulnerable - which is where the root of the
fear is.
So as you cultivate that unitive quality the fear dissipates, so the
relation is one between love and fear, but itâs not the love in the
sense of âI love youâ, it's the sense that we are together in the space
of love.
