What is Fear?

Fears and phobias are the words that we are very much familiar with. These are the words that are so deeply ingrained in our psyches that we seem to carry it all over. These are the words so deeply embedded in our mind that it seems every single decision that we make in our life is somehow affected by the fear that we hold in our mind. And the thing that scares us also interferes with the liberty of our decision-making will. Fear is nothing but darkness. Fear is lack of knowledge. Fear is miscalculations of things and coming to the wrong conclusion. You know you are gonna jump off that plane and you have a parachute attached to your back and you will make it out alive but you won't jump because you feel that you won't be able to make it out alive. You fear that you might die. Fear is having a superstitious view of the world. Fear is a kind of blind faith.

And this sometimes constricts us from going ahead in our life. It becomes a kind barrier or obstacle that block us from seeing whats on the other end of fear. It's surprising and funny for a human being to have fear.  We are the one who has crawled over the surface of the moon but few of us gets scared looking down below from the terrace of their building. We are about to colonize Mars and make ourselves a multi-planetary species yet some of us feel uneasy in their bathtub. These are like the chink in our armor. No matter how sophisticated, powerful and safe we get with the help of technology but these chinks inside of us will always remind us of our transient reality, will always remind us of our mortality.
And so far its one side of the story and if this is about darkness what lies on the other end fear is more ravishing, brightening and glorious. So I personally believe that the part of being scared of something actually enhances our curiosity to see whats on the other end. It ignites our impulses to confront it. It gives us the courage to defeat ourselves by defeating our egos and fears. No matter how scared we are of water but some of us are willing to take a voyage on a raft. No matter how scared we are of height but some of us do go up in the air and jump off. And when you are in the the middle of the air having a beautiful view in front of your eyes, when you feel goosebumps all over skin and your breath is taken away that's when you realize that the thing that scares you the most are also the most exquisite form of beauty or in the words of will smith - the most blissful experience. The point of maximum danger is also the point of minimum fear. You literally feel zero fear at that particular moment. You feel like you have been immortalized in that particular time. You feel that you are the most powerful person on the planet earth in that particular time frame

So to achieve that. To transcend yourself to that level you will have to let go of your fear. You will have to get across of the things that scare you. You will have to be willing to submit yourself into the moment. You will have to be willing to dissolve your identity into this divine nature and in doing so you kind of create a cohesion with this cosmic reality. You merge yourself one to one with this cosmic nature and transform yourself into energy. You start seeing yourself in the form of spirit. And the moment you realize that you are an energy and there is nothing that can destroy you. So that's when you take that leap of faith, that's when you jump off, that's when you go on a voyage, that's when you go out and chase your dreams. So if you have phobias or fears or you are scared of something, it doesn't mean that the thing that is in front of you is more powerful or you are incapable of overcoming it. It just means that you are living in darkness you are living in an illusion and you should confront it. You should face it. You should overcome your fear. So that you can lighten your life, you can lighten your way to the glory
