Sample Book Insights:
#1 Fear is created when you are ignorant of your own self. It is only one fear, and it manifests in many ways, but it is rooted in the fear that you may not be.
#2 The root cause of fear is your false ego, which you have created by not looking in. You are afraid of all those spaces in which you have to look. You are afraid of beauty because beauty simply throws you within.
#3 The belief in the immortality of the soul is not based on religion. It is based on fear. The more cowardly a person is, the more likely he is to believe in the immortality of the soul.
#4 The child is born so helpless that he is naturally afraid of the unknown. He has not yet forgotten those nine months of absolute security, safety, when there was no problem, no responsibility, and no worry for tomorrow.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

Fear is created when you are ignorant of your own self. It is only one fear, and it manifests in many ways, but it is rooted in the fear that you may not be.

#2

The root cause of fear is your false ego, which you have created by not looking in. You are afraid of all those spaces in which you have to look. You are afraid of beauty because beauty simply throws you within.

#3

The belief in the immortality of the soul is not based on religion. It is based on fear. The more cowardly a person is, the more likely he is to believe in the immortality of the soul.

#4

The child is born so helpless that he is naturally afraid of the unknown. He has not yet forgotten those nine months of absolute security, safety, when there was no problem, no responsibility, and no worry for tomorrow.

#5

The fully matured person has no fear, no defense. He is psychologically open and vulnerable. He has dropped all his psychological armor, and is living out of love.

#6

A fearless person has everything life wants to give you as a gift. But you can’t get there from here without first dropping the fear. It’s taken up unconsciously in your childhood, but now you can consciously drop it and be mature.

#7

The root fear is the fear of death. It is the basis of all other fears. You are afraid that if you are real, death will take you. But the truth is that death will take everyone equally.

#8

In Jainism, there is a myth that states if a man becomes a world conqueror, he is called a chakravartin. The myth says that the chakravartins are treated in a special way in heaven. The chakravartin in this story wanted to sign his name on the gold mountain, but the gatekeeper stopped him and told him that he would regret it later.

#9

The only way to overcome your fears is to not try to be special, but to simply be yourself. When you try to be special, you are actually running away from yourself. When you recognize your immortality, death disappears, and with it, all fears.
