In these times of change, the question of our security legitimately raises . I think we have a choice between two solutions, one is not exclusive of the other also. Let us remember that the world we live in (we believe live) depends on our beliefs, particularly in terms of direct, deep, what we are.
Have
Having money, a house in the countryside, a rich family, a good government ... In short, the sense of security based on something external.
Be
be How to be safe? That back to what we believe in our vision of life, death. I like the metaphor of a torchbearer during the Olympic Games. The flame is carried from arm to arm. Each such holder participates, anonymously, to great design. Thus, we carry the flame of consciousness. We're kind of light that is reflected itself. The question then letting go: do not believe our identities of "persons". This proposal may be disturbing, so we believe to be a person, so we believe this to be confusion between real and identities imposed by domestication. Especially since the personality is in some so a measure of the value of a person. Such individual has a strong personality, another has no personality ... Look more closely at some conflicts: wars of religion, terrorism, economic warfare ... Originally, the belief in an identity of "person" believers / unbelievers ... Do not believe that we are a person means that the commitment to these identities, these roles will disappear. We're kind of dough, especially in our younger age. The notion of "person" then appears as a result of this modeling. The diversity of cultures, civilizations, is a proof (too) obvious from this: what we believe to be dependent on location and time of our birth. So let us ask the question: who is there in common, shared between me and a being from another culture? What is common, that's life, the momentum that gives heart-warming and so-called love. Be defined as a living being, as consciousness: animated body, soul incarnated ... is a proposal that meets the experiences that we can live that "resistant" to some extent the experience of our lives. At the same time, this proposal avoids the shortcomings of definitions, eventually, distinguish, isolate, separate, rather than one, together.
