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 they’re doing it with their mind, they’re not really opening
their hearts fully. They are loving, meaning I am attracted to … or I
am attached to ... but its not the quality of the liquid merging.
So I would say that when the fear dissipates you are feeling at home in
the universe. Meaning your identity with your separateness isn’t so
overriding your feeling of connection with everything that you’re
feeling cut off and vulnerable - which is where the root of the fear is.
So as you cultivate that unitive quality then the fear dissipates, so
the relation is one between love and fear, but it’s not the love in the
sense of ‘I love you’, its the sense that we are together in the space
of love.
