From the Fanatical bundle. :)
If you've got a minute, consider this:
Everything around you is a an aspect of the universe, and there is no need to have resistances against anything or anyone, because you are, too. Created by a god or by the rules of nature, whatever angle you want to see it from, the conclusion is the same. You are part of it like everything and everyone else in existence. Nothing to be afraid of, nothing to hate, nothing to get unhappy about, or jealous, or greedy. See the connection between yourself and everything and everyone around you. It's there like an open secret.
It doesn't mean we should accept everything in this world as it is, but to meet its aspects and other people with an attitude of co-responsibility instead of resistance.

Considered. But it quite boring if you have nothing to be afraid of. By being unhappy you cherish the happy moments more. By knowing grief, etc. you learn about the oppisites as well

I take your point about maintaining your own inward peace. But externally, there are things and people in this world to be resisted and opposed.
