The problem is quite simple really. Try to move into a space where your love is absolutely unconditional. The christian religion ascribes this attribute to God. Yet, we act as though his love has all sorts of conditions and believe that God handles things the way we would. He doesn't. Unconditional love is something we can't quite wrap our heads (and hearts) around... yet it is a state of being that can exist.
Likewise, given our past and our experiences, it is identically problematic for us to imagine a world without fear. Do you fear death? Death is the one thing that we all share in common and it is guaranteed at birth. Yet, we fear death. Imagine, if you can, a state of being where you no longer fear death. In that space, there is nothing left to fear. That is the homeostasis we are headed toward. That is the great awakening. Any move by the human race in that direction (even small steps) changes what we build, advocate and experience.
