Many times Steve has written about converting fear into usable energy. However, he hasn't described how and the concept has eluded me thus far. Sure, fear can be used against others (i.e. global war on terror) but how might one turn their own into power? Any suggestions would be appreciated.. Last edited by dannycm; 03-09-2007 at 05:20 PM. |

Fear-personality seeks power by playing on other people's fear. It uses intimidation on others and plays on the greed of others. Fear-polarization also puts motivation into intentions, such as the motivation of greed to work for money. Intimidation and greed, that's pretty much all I can think of. Also, fear likes to make people needy, dependent (powerless, under it's control). To use fear intentions, you compel yourself with feelings of lust, greed, egoistical gain/achievement and victory. And work always for the ego, never think of helping a group unless you're keeping in mind how it directly serves your one ego. Fear-power is always used in relation to others - being more powerful than others and taking away from others to hoard for the ego-self. Just think of the opposite - love polarization experiences oneness, 'all is one', so there is no 'other', only other aspects of the now all-inclusive Self. And whatever you do, don't go far with fear until you've 100% polarized, because people will be out to kill you. Stay low and hidden, such as just being a stock-trader and not a mafia boss, until you've polarized, for if you changed your mind to love and showed that heart-felt mercy, you'd be going down hard and fast. But if you want a certain amount of power, you've got to polarize. And once you've gone down one road, you'll be compelled to go further, up to that amount of power that is dangerous if you're not polarized. Hint, if you feel angry about anything, you're not fully polarized. Fear gets gleeful, sadistically, forcefully and knowing of it's own power. When you're polarized, you feel the strength and focus of your intentions. Anger is resistance, it's not very high up on the consciousness scale. I doubt there's ever been a real evil overlord on this earth, and that makes me doubt there ever will be. To polarize, I believe you have to see the choice, you have to see both sides as viable and fulfilling. The feeling of oneness that is at the peak of love, even if just glimpsed, is indescribably wonderful. And remember that when a person sees self as one with all, all love (for the world) is self-love, so there is no sacrifice. It is still service to Self, just not to the ego.

I also responded to another post of yours on love/fear : Polarity A completely fear-polarized is an Evil Overlord. They don't work with love at all - giving love to get love is muddling around with mixed polarity, and that always leads to strained, very difficult relationships unless you're really more on the love-polarization side when dealing with the person, focused on giving love. Fear wants people to worship it out of fear. A polarized fear-person has these relationships: sex-partners only in it for the sex prositutes slaves business relations informants servants/minions victims A polarized fear-person seeks to lower the consciousness of others, i.e. make them feel worse at all times - except for the informants, they need to have a clear mind, but not too much. A fear-polarized has no trust - only confidence in own power. They're high on the feelings of unstoppable power, superiority, victory, sadistic glee, and greed-fulfillment. see: Peter's Evil Overlord List oh, and a properly polarized fear-person would NEVER give out information like this. He/she would probably seek to hack Steve's site off of the internet as soon as they've polarized. Steve's posts are telling people about their own power. Fear can't have that.
