也許我們都會害怕失去一些重要的東西，例如工作、健康、財富、家庭或朋友等等。光是想到失去的可能，我們就會感到焦慮、悲傷甚至絕望。其實害怕失去並不能改變甚麼，反而會讓我們陷入無謂的煩惱和痛苦中。
無須害怕失去，因為我們沒有擁有過任何東西。無論是房屋、愛人甚至生命，對於世上的一切，我們只有暫時的使用權或保管權。與宇宙的浩瀚相比，這些東西都是微不足道的，也不是可以永恆存在的東西。
害怕失去，只會阻礙我們獲得喜悅。生命短暫，但我們現在還活著，就該好好地慶祝和感恩。如果因為害怕失去而活在煩擾和恐懼之中，那麼我們在此刻已經失去了一切。
無論害怕甚麼，最終都會使我們害怕愛，並且封閉自己的心，活在黑暗和孤獨之中。因為恐懼，我們拒絕嘗試新事物，活得像一塊化石。也因為恐懼，我們無法覺醒，只能在半夢半醒之間徘徊。
唯有點燃內在的意識，才能解開心中的枷鎖。即使真的失去了甚麼，我們都可以從中學習，獲得智慧和成長。能夠接受任何失去，我們也會有勇氣面對生活的任何考驗，變得更加堅定和有信心，並有意識地行動。
意識的本質是信賴，與謹慎的態度有很大的不同，因為謹慎的本質是害怕出錯。堅持謹慎，實際上會讓我們感到恐懼，限制自己對未知領域的探索。而意識則讓我們清晰地思考，信賴理性和智慧，並預測未來的危險和機遇。
意識讓我們看清楚真正會失去甚麼。如果害怕失去，那麼就真的會失去。然而這種失去卻非同小可。因為害怕失去而停止前進，我們會失去生命中寶貴的時光。

The path to Tranquility (9) No need to fear loss
Perhaps we all fear losing something important, such as a job, health, wealth, family or friends, etc. Even just thinking about the possibility of losing them can make us anxious, sad, or even despairing. In fact, the fear of loss doesn't change anything, but instead can trap us in unnecessary worries and suffering.
There's no need to fear loss, because we've never really owned anything. Whether it is a house, a loved one, or even life, we only have temporary use or custody rights to everything in the world. Compared to the vastness of the universe, these things are insignificant, and can not exist forever.
Fear of loss only hinders our acquisition of joy. Life is short, but we are still alive, so we should celebrate and be grateful right now. If we live in annoyance and fear because we are afraid of losing, then we have already lost everything at this moment.
Whatever we fear, it will eventually make us afraid of love and close our hearts, living in darkness and loneliness. Because of fear, we refuse to try new things and live like a fossil. Also because of fear, we cannot wake up and can only linger between half-dream and half-awake.
Only by igniting the inner consciousness can we unlock the shackles in the hearts. Even if we really lose something, we can learn from it, gain wisdom and growth. When we can accept any loss, we will also have the courage to face any test in life, become more determined and confident, and act with awareness.
The essence of consciousness is reliance, which is very different from the attitude of caution, because the essence of caution is the fear of making mistakes. Insisting on caution can actually make us fearful and limit our exploration of unknown territory. And consciousness allows us to think clearly, rely on reason and wisdom, and predict the dangers and opportunities ahead.
Consciousness allows us to see clearly what we can really lose. If we fear losing, then we will truly lose. However, this kind of loss is no small matter. Because of the fear of loss and stop moving forward, we will lose precious time in our lives.
