Anxiety is the resistance of growth. It happens when ego; the box we’re conditioned to keep our awareness in finds itself too tiny to retain our expanding consciousness.

I would say that anxiety is when cracks appear in the walls of the box...when one is confronted with the unpredictable, the uncontrollable...death....

Well said. Now letting these cracks form and eventually give in instead of trying to fix them or prevent them from happening... that’s liberation. Because when the box gives in, we see the world as it is and realize its divine essence that’s present everywhere.

Exactly. When the box is completely sealed it creates a force field that allows someone to be incapsulated and be “strong”. Usually the cracks are seen as weakness. So a society cultivating an allergy to weakness and glorifying this artificial “strength” is always living a lie..

Liberation is indeed when the box becomes “living” and “like water”...when there is a beautiful harmony and perpetual exchange & flow with the spaces inside and outside the box..
