ABOUT THE TOPiC:
FEAR LEADS TO ANGER:
When we have anger we lose the power in ourselves and we fail to understand that we have a problem. By being aware of the fact that everything is uspicious we can overcome anger. Fear is the passive form of the energy while anger is he active expression. It is said that we undergo ix to twelve fear strokes very day and night, both in dreams and also in wakefulness. Fear strokes originate from unconsciousness
When they are viewed with
awareness and consciousness,
they can be substantially reduced.
You must understand it is OK to
fail, to lose something learn
from that to be more aware.
What are fear strokes?
For example: you are walking in
the garden in the dark, and you
see a coil of rope. You start
shivering, imagining it to be
snake. That sudden shock you
get before realizing it is just a
rope not a snake is what is called
a fear stroke. A fear stroke is like
shaking a rose plant from its
roots. Every fear can be used as a
door to enlightenment.
If you are experiencing
too many fears in your
life and if you know the
right technique all
those fears can become
doors and you can be
liberated. Otherwise all
the fears are like walls.
All you need to do is,
every time you feel fear,
do not lose confidence.
If you are courageous
enough to face the fear,
it can lead you to
liberation.
Fear strokes are short
spikes of fear. Fear strokes
weaken the immune
system.They release
depression — inducing
chemicals and even
accelerate our ageing
process. Fear can be
changed to fearlessness
and intelligence out of
pure awareness
Anything suppressed
only takes up another
form. It doesn't set
uprooted totally. So
suppression is not the
way to overcome fear.
Awareness is the way.
In fact if you suppress
fear, you are missing
the chance of
overcoming it. Having
fear is natural. But
connecting the fear to
an object is societal.
