BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, June 24th, 2008 by Jack Kornfield in A PATH WITH HEART

"Americans spend fifty billion dollars a year on security systems and guards. We get caught and lost in fear so often in our life, but rarely have we examined and dealt with the demon of the fearful mind itself. Of course, as we work with the fearful mind, we will initially become afraid. We will encounter this demon over and over again. However, at some point, if we open our eyes and our heart to the fearful mind and gently name it, ‘fear, fear, fear,’ experiencing its energy as it moves through us, the whole sense of fear will shift, and later will simply come the recognition, ‘Oh, fear, here you are again. How interesting."

                    Jack Kornfield, in “A Path With Heart”
