This thread has the potential to cover a wide array of emotions that fall into the fear or love spectrum. This particular post I wish to discuss anger and get the opinion of others.
I have always thought of love as existing on the same wavelength as fear. Two sides of the same coin, different poles of a shared vibration??
What do you think? And - more to the point, I think anger is actually a type of fear.
I think fear as anger comes from a need to control or lack of control. Anger can also come from impatience which, again, is a (mostly) unrealized reaction to things that are not happening in the manner we want or expect.
Anger can also come from an exaggerated sense of self importance- like feeling we have been wronged or treated in a manner we shouldn't... Which... Again... I think comes from a lack of control or need to control.
Anger manifest but Fear is the unconscious or unrealized lack of.
Most people don't see anger as belonging to fear. Some people who are angry would think it means they are tough and ready to fight and destroy. They could never see themselves as being afraid in that moment.
But "fight or flight" is all fear. When you feel "threatened" and it is irrational, it could be because of some attachment towards a particular perversion happening in the mind. Be you on drugs and you are extra paranoid or be you in a city with a skewed and shallow viewing lens of the world around you. Not that shallow means wrong, it just means lacking depth. In some instances, survival dictates you have to be on guard... In a hostile environment, it would be appropriate to judge a book by its cover. That's not "wrong" that's wisdom. Like... that manic guy waving his machete at the bus stop. You would be fool hearted thinking you can exchange pleasantries. But wisdom doesn't create anger.
It's possible that fear enters because your survival is threatened, but it doesn't mean you act belligerent.
Fear has its place. This thread isn't necessarily about overcoming fear- unless you wish to share that too..
But I am more curious if others agree or disagree that anger belongs to fear.
And also curious whether or not, anger has its place?
As a separate point. There are spiritual doctrines that discuss righteous anger. But I think that's more so a way for humans to try and rationalize actions of God- considering God may perform actions that are hard to understand as it relates to the human drama. My belief is God is not limited to human faculties. I don't think it's a humans job to try and exercise, "righteous anger." I believe that is a misunderstanding because humans can only relate things from their viewing lens- their senses and experiences with. But really I don't even know if righteous anger exist.
God or no god, anger exist and I believe it is under the umbrella of Fear.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks for starting this thread, Tides! Fear and negative emotions associated with it definitely need to be analyzed and faced. It's good to talk bout them and not try to ignore them or be afraid that we feel fear in the first place.
First, it's very normal to experience all these emotions and have limiting beliefs that trigger these emotions because we signed up for them :) It was our choice to enter the game and adhere by its rules, set tests, most of the time very challenging tests. Just for that choice alone, I admire all souls that had taken this quest, as they are brave beyond imagination, regardless if they appear to be learning or create chaos. Everyone is playing a role, and at times souls agree to play the villains to create lessons for those who had asked them. So, no judgement at all on the roles, as in other lives they may be reversed.
Fear may have many reasons to be present as many beliefs there are, and as many points of consciousness experiencing these sorts of schools. I for example rarely get angry, but I do have fears for example for the well being of my loved ones because I love them too much. I am not angry if they experience challenges, but I hurt and I feel sadness. I do understand though that everyone has their paths and have chosen to experience certain challenges, so I no longer react the way I was reacting before to unfortunate circumstances. I direct my emotions towards analyzing what are the lessons behind and what beliefs I may have that manifest these circumstances.
So is anger the product of fear? I would say yes. But fear doesn't always produce anger (observed in my own life). When the ego is in absolute control and someone is not aware that there is more to the equation than this physical character, they most likely will be trapped within these cycles of judgement, self doubt, helplessness, powerlessness. Until this accumulates so much that they start asking questions, who am I, what is in control, what can I do, etc. And they start looking for answers. But until then, they want to be where they are so they can keep trying again and again and again to pass the test. And that is perfectly fine.
Once we become aware of the bigger picture, we still have to continue discovering and accumulating more experience/knowledge which eventually leads to shifting to higher frequencies where fear is not even logical.
When I experience higher AP shifts there is NEVER fear, not in the slightest. I dont even think of a possibility to meet something scary, or something/someone hurting me. There is absolutely no existence of the idea itself. My fear ends on the threshold of passing through the sleep paralysis and vibrations while adjusting to AP. These can be scary, but once I am refocused to a relatively high frequency this becomes nonexistent. I have been at a lower frequencies during APs during retrievals (we have a separate thread) where I observe others being afraid and I help them, so there are non-physical frequencies where fear exists, but I don't think it exists at a higher frequencies. The amount of knowledge and absence of filters there simply make this idea illogical.
