Today in contemplation
Do not fear. Fear confuses love with attachment. Attachments bind you to worldly ways. Without fear, you are not bound to the me of the body with its desires and expectations. Pleasure and pain, happiness and sorrow give way to you holding peace of heart in all situations. Even death refuses to show itself. Love without fear and you will know joy. Joy is eternal. It does not summon death like the me of the body. To live in joy is to live without dying. Joy does not contend. It speaks silently without ill-will. It misses nothing. To know joy is to walk the way of the path without fear. Thus, you keep company with the living and leave the dead to attend to themselves.
