Fear: How to conquer it?



What is fear?

Fear is a feeling incited by apparent risk or danger, which causes physiological changes and at last social changes, for example, escaping, covering up, or freezing from apparent horrendous mishaps. fear in people may happen because of a specific upgrade happening in the present, or in expectation or desire for a future danger saw as a hazard to oneself. The fear reaction emerges from the view of peril prompting showdown with or escape from/maintaining a strategic distance from the risk , which in outrageous instances of fear  can be a freeze reaction or loss of motion.

Fear has attacked essentially every aspect of our life. A climate of fear puts strain on typical life.

Fear is regularly respected with contempt and dauntlessness praised as an alluring quality. 

Be that as it may, truth be told, if man was without a feeling of fear his endurance would be endangered, since he wouldn't have the instrument which would caution him of peril and uplift the forces of the body and psyche to make a quick getaway. This fear response is ordinary fear. It is actually a partner of man that helps the safeguarding of his species.

Fear is not joke

No individual at any point conceived has known the impression of dread. From adolescence to mature age, the objects of dread change and shift however steadily he conquers some of them and new ones, all the more unnerving, supplant them. Dread is a partner of life, probably the most grounded feeling of man that the two spares him and by and large decimates him. 

It started as a joke... 

In South India, at Mannipal Medical College a class was in progress. The teacher was dismembering a human body while a gathering of understudies gazed on. Inside the 'Analyzation Room' there were in excess of twenty tables, each with a dead body. One understudy tested the companion: "I wager you can't come into the chamber at 12 PM, dead on the stroke of twelve." 

"Obviously I can. I'm not frightened." 

"At that point come today around evening time and contact every one of these bodies, consistently." 

The test was taken. The class finished. Everybody scattered. That night, a couple of moments before twelve, the tested understudy confronted the passage of the analyzing room. 

He wore an intense face however a mellow vibe of dread stirred its way up his nerves as he entered. He was distant from everyone else. It was dim and quietness was becoming heavier. Pushing open the entryways, he started his test. 

One, two, three....four... consistently, he contacted the bodies as he anxiously proceeded onward... 

...He wasn't apprehensive... or then again right? 

This wasn't the first occasion when he was contacting dead cadavers. 

In any case, sadly, it would be his last! 

The minute he contacted the eight dead body, the body rose. It woke up! 

An exceptional dread stunned him as he crumbled with an incomplete breath. He kicked the bucket in a split second. 

What had happened was that the challenger companion, only for a joke, had expelled the cadaver from the eighth table and rested stripped in mimicry. In any case, when he emerged at the touch, it threatened his companion to the degree of affecting his demise! 

This is a genuine episode, revealed in the Times of India in the year 1971. In spite of the fact that such sensational occurrences happen far and not many between, the scourge of dread, with its multi-confronted figure.


“Fears are educated into us, and can, if we wish, be educated out.”

Conquer the FEAR

fear emerges when one feels second rate compared to his environment and is separately unequipped for conquering it. Dr.Adler, a specialist showed that the sentiment of instability and inadequacy is widespread and local to the person, so that by his very constitution he needs a hold and force, not his own to assist him with managing life. The man of confidence in God feels bolstered by all the assets of the universe. He never feels forlorn or betrayed. The popular clinician William James underpins, "A religion which gives the feeling of a limitless force behind the limited individual and interminable goodness, keeps an eye on itself to evacuate all fear, to deliver a courage so far as the religion is truly accepted." Another prominent analyst of London, Dr.Hadfield reconfirms, "I have endeavored to fix apprehensive patients with recommendations of quietness and certainty yet without progress until I connected those proposals on to the confidence and the intensity of God." 

In this way, numerous past and late analysts concur that religion demonstrates a path to the end of all - typical and unusual apprehensions. Confidence in God has liberated numerous from the shackles of fear. 

At the point when all out, healthy trust is put, one becomes as unfearing as Arjuna of the Mahabharat. During the multi day attacking war, Bhisma, the dauntless warrior promised to execute Arjun. Bhisma appeared to be preeminent in fighting and powerful in battle. Everybody expected that Arjun made certain to bite the dust. At evening time, all the Pandavas - the siblings of Arjun - were accumulated in a tent, fussing and stressing. Master Krishna, entered and was astounded not to discover Arjun there. Looking Arjun out, the Lord discovered him sleeping soundly in his tent. He shook him once, twice, thrice ... saying, "Wake up! Don't you know Bhisma has pledged to decapitate you tomorrow?" 

"Truly" came a tired answer. 

"At that point would you say you aren't frightened for your life? How might you rest when such risk anticipates you?" 

"Since you are alert my Lord!" 

The Lord broke into a guaranteeing grin. Arjun was persuaded that his destiny lay not in the hands of Bhisma however in the hands of the Lord. The Lord was conscious, looking out for him, securing him. So there was nothing to fear! 

Valor is a 3-letter word - GOD. 

Today, a living confirmation of such courage is H.D.H. Pramukh Swami Maharaj. Swamishri is a powerhouse of mental fortitude and certainty. Individuals trust in him, ask from him, put confidence in him and hold him dearer than their spirits. A huge number of individuals have transcended ordinary apprehensions; for his association with Bhagwan Swaminarayan is steadfast and his ways are one of a kind. Swami addresses the individuals who have THE FEAR... 

...Of Public Speaking

He talks about Gunatitanand Swami. He was no researcher in Sanskrit. But then Bhagwan Swaminarayan requested that he go to Memdavad and face a get together of academic monsters in a discussion. Gunatitanand Swami not even once feared the idea of disappointment. He intensely went, talked with confidence and conviction and rose successful. 

...Of Failing Exams 

Swamishri frequently cites Yogiji Maharaj, "Study consistently four hours every day on the off chance that in school and eight hours on the off chance that in a school; at that point you will be positive about a test. fear comes because of absence of arrangement. So get ready widely and ask intensely." 

...Of Superstitions 

As of late a fan, Ramesh Darji, was tormented by dark enchantment. At home, in a little town in Khedbrahma, Sabarkantha, Ramesh went to sit on the bed and it fallen. A roaring split tore the room divider before his eyes. The sound filled the area. What's more, numerous family members prompted Ramesh to surrender confidence in God and give up unto the detestable spirits. Ramesh stayed staunch and resolute. After seven days he encountered the magician who was amazed to see him alive! He had attempted his most horrible spell yet without much of any result! Ramesh's confidence in Bhagwan Swaminarayan became precious stone like. Superstitions and magic are minor breeze when one remains tied down with confidence in God and Swamishri. 

...Of Progeny 

Swamishri demands we impart in our youngsters the correct character in their young, green years. At exactly that point, will they never betray us and go bad throughout everyday life! Improve our kids' character to guarantee achievement. 

...Of Death 

In the expressions of Bhagwan Swaminarayan: - Vachanamrut Loya Section.2 

"Four kinds of fans never again fear passing and feel satisfied. One of them is the steadfast, who has unyielding confidence in God..." 

An old woman of the town Ghandala was so earnest in her confidence that Bhagwan Swaminarayan uncovered her date of death. She was excited and actually arranged for the occasion. She could imagine herself in paradise, endlessly free. Her significant other questioned her as she looked too beneficial to even think about dieing. Be that as it may, she dieed as anticipated. She grasped passing merrily - confidence was the mystery of her bravery. 

...Of Responsibility 

Swamishri was inquired as to whether he had any stresses because of the duty of being the profound ace (master) of the Swaminarayan Sampraday. Swamishri answered, "The ace is Bhagwan Swaminarayan. I am a worker, only here to oversee and complete His orders." 

Swamishri never for once feels the weight of being the leader of the Sampraday, for he knows Bhagwan Swaminarayan is the head. He handles all issues as per the desire of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and thus he feels no weight at all. 

Offset fear with confidence. For there is no power right now ground-breaking than confidence when it is confidence top to bottom, confidence that is genuine, true blue. Confidence is no palliative; it's a fix - the main sure remedy for fear. 

As this truism keeps up, 

"fear thumped on the entryway; Faith addressed it and nothing was there!"

Slow vs Fast Life: What is better ?

“There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.” Life is beyond speed. One piece of the field of life's importance comprises of the precise endeavour to explain what individuals mean when they solicit in uprightness from what life has meaning.  This area tends to various records of the feeling of discussing "life's signifying" (and of "hugeness," "significance," and different equivalent words).  A vast greater part of those compositions on life's importance regard discusses it midway to demonstrate a positive last worth that a person's life can display.  That is, relatively few accept either that a significant life is a simply unbiased quality, or that what is of key intrigue is the importance of the human species or universe as a whole. What is a slow life? The tradition of living life with more consciousness or awareness, that allows anyone to see and enjoy each moment of life.  Slow livi

Meditation In Noise

Problem to do meditation in a noisy atmosphere The current era is full of disturbance with so much noise around us. People are complaining about it while they get suggestions to do meditation to get peace.  They get distracted due to lots of disturbance in the environment and they drop the idea of meditation and eventually, they again suffer the same problems.  How to deal with this problem? Now, this scenario is normal in day to day life hence it may be possible that we can not get a peaceful place or environment all the while. We need to develop the technique or process to use noise for our meditation. Suppose we are sitting in a room, garden or anywhere where we found lots of noise around us and they are loud enough that we can not listen to meditation music or mantra. In this situation, we will use that noise as a meditation tool. How? Suppose there is machinery running with louder noise continuously, then focus on that noise only and do normal breathing. As it

5 States of Mind

Chitta is one of the four parts of consciousness. The part of Chitta takes into account subjectivity, one's passionate response, influenced by what it sees and its own tendency. For instance, on the off chance that a severe taste influences one contrarily, at that point one's view of an unpleasant tasting organic product will be negative. The other three parts of the mind are manas (seeing psyche),  buddhi (insight) and ahankara (self-image). The 5 states of mind in which  consciousness  lies are: Kshipta –  Distracted mind Mudha –  Dull or Lazy state of mind Bikshipta –  Partially focused mind Ekagra –  one-pointed mind Niruddha –  Fully absorbed mind 1. Kshipta – Distracted Mind Kshipta or dissipated is the least and most basic condition of the psyche which shows during waking hours. This state is ruled by the "rajas" guna due to the most time in waking hours associated with some physical or mental action.  Right now, an individual shift

How to beat the haste?

A devotee was having tea with his Zen ace when a mailman landed with a letter from the ace's family in Korea. Realizing he had been enthusiastically foreseeing the letter the supporter stopped in his discussion to enable his lord to tear open the envelope and hurriedly seek after the substance. Rather, he set the letter aside and proceeded with the discussion.  The next day the pupil commended the restraint of the ace, saying that he would have perused the letter without a moment's delay.  "I did what I would have done had I been distant from everyone else," the ace said. "I set the letter aside until I had vanquished flurry. At that point when I set my hand to it, I opened it just as it were something valuable." This enabled him to open the envelope gradually and cautiously.  The devotee enquired what such tolerance prompted.  "The individuals who show restraint in unimportant things throughout everyday life and control themselves
