The root of fear is the feeling of separateness that can exist here,
within oneself. The root of the fear is within the model one has of
oneself. That’s where fear starts. Once that feeling of separation
exists, then you process everything from either inside or outside in
terms of that model. It then keeps reinforcing the feeling of
vulnerability, because there are incredibly powerful forces moving both
inside and outside of you.
The transformative process of spiritual work is reawakening to the
innocence of going behind that model of separation that one has, that
cuts you off, that made you a tiny little fragile somebody. A lot of the
power comes from a freeing of our own fragility.
