Fear and Awareness.
----------------©-----------------
Is death inauspicious?
Is it the death, or the fear of death, that could be said inauspicious.
Is fear inauspicious?
Fear again could be rational or irrational.
Fear is a warning of the imminent possible danger.
So fear is truly a blessing in that it makes one aware of the incoming possible danger.
One could be either foolhardy and face the situation blindly without understanding the implications and the significance of fear, or could cautiously deal with the fear.
But again, exactly 'who' is the 'one' that is in fear?
Does the body know the fear?
Is it not the mind that comes across the feeling that is called "fear".
Is the mind the consciousness, or is known in the consciousness?
Again, is the mind personal (or individual) or the collective, or is neither the individual nor the collective, but only a collection of thoughts, feelings, emotions, habits bundled together in memory.
Is the memory not information only?
How one could possibly say 'my memory'?
Is not the adjective 'my' too a part of this memory that is of the brain?
If 'my' is memory only, exactly 'who' or 'what' is one that memory is tethered to like a thread?
Does the individual or the person that appears to be this thread, really exist?
How this phenomenon that is the individual or the person comes into appearance, and keeps disappearing repeatedly moment to moment?
If and when this fact is realized, there is no more the question of fear or the danger for the one, 'who' has come across this realization.
Is the 'one' then the mind or the consciousness of the mind?
So,
Is this consciousness / awareness then could be an individual, personal, collective existence / affair, or free from them all, and the pure sense of being only?
