Swamiji, how do we overcome fear for small things?

First of all understand that all small fears are mere projections of the ultimate fear of death. Second, don"t resist the fear in you. Just keep repeating to yourself that you are scared and go through it, that"s all! You will soon find that the fear is no longer there because you saw it through. Start doing this every time you feel fear.

When you consciously work on this, you will understand that what you call fear is nothing but your response or reaction to an incident or thought. Depending on how you respond, you can claim that you did not have fear or had fear. And, with more and more awareness, you can respond towards fear without fear!

Remember one thing: No one can claim to be fearless. One can learn to handle fear without fear, that"s all. If anyone professes to be fearless, be very clear that they have not analyzed deeply the subject of fear and human response to it. Don"t start thinking that they are superhumans and you are a lesser mortal.

Yes…

Swamiji, I remember how you made me overcome my fear for spiders!

(Swamiji laughs!) Yes yes, tell them how ma!

(A young girl says) While in our discussions one day, I jumped up when I saw a spider and you laughed at me for it. You told me to meditate on the spider every time I saw one. I followed this meticulously and every time I saw one, I looked at it with awareness and concentration. Slowly I started wondering why I was scared of it after all!
