It's very inspiring to read you Edwin!
Fear really spoils everything. If your fears dropped to a level where you can't feel them anymore, «or maybe they are non-existent» that is so great. I truly wish it was the same for me!
I have to feeling that FEAR is what can stop us from attracting what we want. I wonder if it's not THE basic negative emotion underneath all other negative emotions. Edwin, did you accomplish that - get rid of your fears - through meditation?

Yes, through meditation for more than a year, but also reading Eckhart Tolle's books, a book by Paul Wilson "the Quiet", but also the many many many inspiring threads in this forum, with all the wonderfull contributors here that bring new insights, links to online teachers, and recommendations for other good books... This forum is a blessing !
I guess that, if you're feeling fear, you are releasing in the universe a vibrationnal frequency that counteracts the positive demand you give to the universe. Since our true self doesn't know fear, I suppose that's one reason why it's so important to be in touch with our true self in order to attract what we want without obstacles.

Now that it is gone it feels like it ( fear ) has been like a big rubber block in between the contact points that seem to connect between the "ego" and something deeper, I don't yet know what it is, but there seems to be a great calm and peace that makes all my previous worries seem so insignificant, ridiculous even... It's like I never realised that life just happens, and worries won't change the situation I am in at that time... sorry that is the best description I can give of what I feel at the moment. Mind you, it seems like a breakthrough when I write about it like this, but the only real difference I feel now is that it seems as if I am meditating all the time, at first I could only duplicate this feeling of peace during meditation.
Breath, if you want to experience the same, all you have to do is meditate and read through these wonderfull posts here, and eventually the insight will come to you too. Maybe sooner than me, or later, but the moment will come. The only thing holding you back when it comes to releasing fear is, how much are you prepared to let go of self-torture through fear.
I liked to feel very sorry with myself you know
