Fear lies at the root of it all
“Fear” is a negative emotion that everyone harbors deep within their hearts, and it sometimes serves a necessary purpose. It is precisely because we have this emotion that we can sense and avoid imminent danger and carefully control our actions. Therefore, there is no need to view “fear” itself as something negative.
What’s important is to understand that there’s no need to be “excessively” afraid. As with everything in life, viewing things too negatively limits your own actions, and consuming excessive amounts of harmful substances can lead to poor health.
Media outlets, starting with “television,” deliver negative information almost every day. If you stop thinking for yourself and simply drift along on autopilot, these negative thoughts will accumulate within you, solidifying into a hardened mass that disrupts your peace of mind and ultimately leads to physical and mental distress. This is because anxiety and fear generate incoherent vibrations, which in turn affect your heart rate and brain waves. I’ll discuss this topic in more detail another time.
Unnecessary Information from TV and the News
This is a slight digression, but I believe that the word “television” is originally a combination of “vision”—which depicts the future we wish to realize—and “tel,” which means to transmit it to a distance, much like a telephone. In other words, television, in its true sense, should be a medium for widely conveying the image of the future we should strive for. However, I cannot help but feel that modern television has been reduced to a tool used by certain parties to instill nothing but negative images, steering people’s outlook on the future in an undesirable direction.
Furthermore, “newspapers” are by no means “new.” What is written there is nothing more than events from the “past” that have already occurred. While they may be useful in business for reading future trends and devising strategies, for us, the vast majority of their content consists of unnecessary information.
What you need to be mindful of every day are not the incidents and accidents that television and the news present as if they were your own personal concerns. You likely already know from past experience or advice from your parents how to be cautious in daily life to avoid such incidents and accidents—even without new information. The key is not to get buried under the constant stream of negative news and not to dwell on it excessively.
Negative Energy That Creeps In
If you are constantly aware of “fear” in your daily life and act based on that fear, the reality you fear will manifest in your life. This is because the cosmic field receives whatever you project your consciousness toward as the reality you desire.
“I don’t want that!” you might say. The cosmic field has no standard for “good” or “evil.” Whether something is good or bad for you is irrelevant to the cosmic field. It simply receives what you’ve strongly focused on and brings it down into your reality.
Now, here’s a story about one of my students. She used to spend her time actively—going on day camps, hiking, and walking—and had favorite spots for each activity. However, she heard reports that bears had been sighted at all of those places, and she found it difficult to go there anymore. She asked me, “Are these events some kind of sign?”
How would you interpret this?
Most people would probably think, “If there have been bear sightings, I’d better not go.”
I believed that the information about “bear sightings” linked with her memories of her past activities and manifested in reality.
She said she hadn’t been paying attention to such news or information herself, but the information from people around her—and the reports coming in almost daily from various sources—unconsciously seeped into her mind. That’s right—“even if the person isn’t actively seeking out that information.”
Since the person understands mindset and negative energy, we treated this as casual conversation. I said, “As long as you view what happened objectively and don’t let fear get the better of you, you’ll be fine,” and that was the end of it.
As an aside, I saw bears last week and yesterday. If you go out into nature, of course they’re there. It’s just that simple.
