"can someone ease my fear?"

No. Nobody can erase your fear. If there is a fear of the phenomenon, come to understand why the fear exists. Because the reality is that the deeper you go into meditation, is at the same time one's perception of body, mind, time, and space - all drop away and there is only vast silence.

u dont need to fear that u will loose ur body.trance is just like sleep but ur awake at the same time.next time u feel fear dont hide from it.instead sit down and feel the source of the fear.just keep watching the fear and soon it will disappear.Thn u will know that u can feel fear but you are not fear just like u can feel happiness but r u happiness?

@goatchez27 it requires courage! Meditation is mindfulness, which is courage itself! Mindfulness is the state where we are fully present in the world, it takes courage, but the idea is to get the the point where we realise we are the source of all our happiness. This isn't just a saying but must be realised personally. I haven't reached it.
