Living a Fearless Life

[YinYang]

some people are truly fearless.  When someone has honestly been exposed to the extremeties of the physical experience, and they are still bold, forthright, and undiminished, I look upon them and say: that is truly wondrous.  There are not many that I have encountered like you.

Those are the people I call alchemists. A friend and I were talking the other day about other acquaintances of ours who have met with some misfortune or are going through some turbulent times, and she said "people are more resilient than you think", and I said "no they're not". And then it opened a lengthy discussion with me saying basically just because someone is still putting one foot in front of the other and breathing, doesn't mean they're resilient. They're existing or surviving, or getting by. Only someone who has transmuted negative energy to positive, and still have a lust for life, is resilient. As far as I'm concerned they're a minority, they are the alchemists.

As for fear, I think it has to do with red, orange and yellow ray, depending on the undesired possibility. For example someone with rejection issues, who is totally financially secure, but fears rejection from an individual or group, that's orange or yellow ray, because their immediate physical survival isn't threatened. I might be wrong, it's just my personal feeling about it. Or some very famous person who has fallen from grace, like Oscar Pistorius here by us. That shame is a yellow ray societal type of fear. He went from most loved, most photographed celebrity, to most hated and even death threats in one night, and I often wondered if it's possible for someone to come back from that... if the whole planet knows about it.
