Jovius question. 

Jovius talks quite a bit about fear and how we should be careful not to create from that place.  When encountering a situation that feels dangerous how do we know the difference between our inner knowing and just plain fear.

When you are in a dangerous situation, then run.  That is what fear is for, to alert you to what is dangerous, so you move quickly away -- to preserve your physical body and avoid trauma.  Fear is part of your inner self and therefore, part of your inner knowing. 

It is when you live with fear so close to you that fear grows and becomes a large part, that is cause for concern.  If you have a lot of fear this fear takes on a much larger role because it was exercised more and got bigger/more powerful than some of the other parts of you.  So much of who you are presently will come from fear because fear is programmed that way for you. 

You can ask yourself why this situation is bringing fear up?  Why should fear be present?  Is fear necessary in this situation?  When fear has become your friend, it can be challenging to sift through what to do because fear has always been holding your hand.  You will not find this the healthiest place to create from.  Fear attracts fear.  This is just how it works.

Keep asking the inner you and listen for the answer..
