billy's basic detachment practice

[Billy]

I got a very nice empirical glimpse at a concept dealing with fear.  Fear is so much part of life, and I mention somewhere that one can encompass fear as part of wholeness.  Today I  was able to stop in fear's tracks, and noticed, "YES this is fear feelings."  I intended the sense of being okay with fear, befriended the feelings right then and there.  Where was the fear? 

   I then realized fear is no different than pain.  I had learned to acquiesce to pain, even turn it.  So why wasn't the pain painful?  Death can be an ally.  I have befriended death..  YES, this is about death as much as life.  It teaches how to effectively negate the unwanted suchness.

   I tell you nothing in the world can hold me, yet I can hold everything in the world.
