Anxiety often seems built into the fabric of life:
"What . . . is the nature of the reality that we believe in evidentially? Transiency is the main reality. We appear to live in an ever-perishing world. It seems that our life is confined to a single instant at a time. We see everything passing away--forever . . . . We witness, apparently, events, people, and things disappearing into total extinction, into an absolute nothingness, as the result of passing-time." (p. 80, Nicoll, Living Time)
The self lives in the world like a permanent alien, always afraid that if it stirs up trouble its papers will be revoked and deportation proceedings initiated. (p. 226, LOK)
As long as we continue to operate within a limited 'lower space' perspective which perceives a 'self' set apart from an 'other', our experience will remain a self-perpetuating cycle of anxiety, frustration, pain, and despair. We need to transcend the 'isolated self' perspective altogether in order to deal directly with the root of our emotional and psychological problems . . . . (p. 66, TSK)
Craving sets up a constrictive field (or 'space') in which no positive, expansive feelings or healing can take place. An initial fascination or anxiety stimulates craving, which gives way to grasping, only to create further anxiety--instead of fulfillment. (p. 269, TSK)
However, there are other possibilities:
We can learn to view both positive and negative situations as 'time'; and as such, we can transform them . . . . We can develop a better understanding of the locatedness of the knowing self in our limited temporal structure. Living within such a limited time, we are insensitive to many inspiring forces or dimensions, and are thus subject to life as being an extremely pressing and compelling process. By learning to 'know' 'time' better, we can counteract this general trend and can open to an infinity of 'time' for fulfillment. Once all temporal partitions are down, and 'time' is at the disposal of 'knowingness', we can be released from all fear, anxiety, and strain. Even the fear of death can be transcended, since in this more comprehensive view of 'time', there is no death. (p. xiii-xiv, TSK)
