Click: Fear vs greed

About the topic: Human mind basically oscillates between fear and greed. The oscillation between fear and greed is the mind. Greed is about the past and fear is about future-unknown. Whenever you get a thought of fear bring in the thought of greed it will counter act it. As long as this movement is there, the highest possible coherence does not happen in you. When the consciousness stays in restful awareness, the highest coherence happens in you. When fear is awakened, you forget greed. When you are caught in greed, you forget fear. Only later you remember the side effects and after effects. When fear takes over, consciously slap yourself to the center with greed and when greed takes over, consciously slap yourself the center with fear and experience the highest coherence. This is what Buddha calls as the middle path. Any decision you have taken in life based on the middle path, you will take it with highest coherence. Any decision taken with the highest possible coherence will fulfill you and the world. You are the world and the world is you. The best way is to take the whole world and life lightly.
