Fearlessness – A Divine Virtue

Why Fearlessness is considered a divine virtue? There are numerous reasons because of its two way action both as a cause and


an effect of many other divine virtues. Fearlessness is the result of righteous living, and also leads to righteous living.

Fear- An Effect of compromising on the Universal Eternal Truths;

There is an internal voice that gives you a warning signal whenever you initiate some action which is in contravention to the universal eternal truths, if you ignore this warning and go ahead with your action, then the internal voice gives you another warning signal, the strength of this signal is stronger than the previous warning signal, if you ignore even this stronger warning signal then the next time you again compromise on universal eternal truths, this warning signal becomes even stronger. And with each subsequent action compromising the universal eternal truths the strength of this warning signal keeps on increasing till a point is reached where the complete sensitivity to the warning signal is lost due to the conditioning of the senses responsible for perceiving the signal, this gradually takes the shape of a deep rooted fear and in your subconscious you get conditioned to this fear, as it becomes a part and parcel of your being, thereby making you devoid of the divine virtue, fearlessness.

Conditioning to the Fear Nurtures a Distorted Paradigm;

Fear is the feeling emanating from the thoughts of a possibility, real or unreal, of going through an unpleasant experience, where in you may fear the loss of health, beauty, job or some other valuable possession. Your conditioning to the fear brings with it the emergence of a distorted paradigm through which you start viewing the world. This is the reason why certain specific people perceive things in their own specific ways, in line with their conditioned approaches. And with the passage of time you realize that you are carrying various fears with you, as soon as you become aware of these fears you desperately try to get rid of them, but by now these fears are so deeply embedded in your being that these superficial attempts fail to get you any relief.

How to get rid of these fears?;

To get rid of these fears and achieve the divine virtue of fearlessness you need to unwind and peel off layer after layer till you are able to achieve your original state of fearlessness. This peeling off is done by identifying the specific universal truths compromised by you and taking a conscious stand to follow the universal eternal truths, this way you have to consciously monitor your thoughts and actions to ensure that they are in line with the universal eternal truths. These efforts would eventually bring to life the dead senses, which again start perceiving the warning signals of the inner voice, and gradually with the passage of time these become alive and stronger than ever, conditioned not to miss even a very feeble signal and that too without any conscious monitoring.

Know the Difference between Fearlessness and Ignorance

 A very important point to be noted here is that, fearlessness is the result of real time awareness of the fact that you are not violating any of the universal eternal truths and not the ignorance of the fact that you are violating one or more of the universal eternal truths, the latter state is referred to as living under the spell of ignorance and this can in no way be equated to the divine state of fearlessness. The virtue of fearlessness is the result of unwavering adherence to the universal eternal truths and it is also the inbuilt confidence that when you are living the universal eternal truths than you will be surely having the protection of the supernatural forces of nature, God.

Fearlessness- An Effect of Living the Universal Eternal Truths

You can stand up for your convictions only when you are fearless, because if you are under the grip of fear then your actions will be guided by the logic of obeying the fear and not your conviction of being righteous. Such a situation would again push you into actions which would in turn lead you into further consequences involving fear and the cycle would go on infinitely. Therefore if you want to live fearlessly it is advisable that you take a fresh view of your life and if at any time you find that you are afraid of something, you must ensure that you do a thorough analysis of the situation to understand which of the universal eternal truths are compromised by you. Such an approach will help you in deciding earlier on, about the specific areas in your life requiring immediate correction.  So using fear as an initial symptom of bigger deep rooted issues the divine virtue of fearlessness can be achieved and maintained on a continued basis.

God Bless

Knowing Your True Self

Most of Us Always Take It  For Granted;
This is the concept most of us , always take for granted. If you were to ask someone this question,"Do you know yourself ?", whatever may be that person's response but only the person who is answering this question knows the truth in the answer.Moreover this question would loose its essence if it were to be asked

 from others, the greatest value in answering this question lies when you are asking yourself,for example, it does not make a difference to you if you get to know the amount of money in the bank account of other people, yes what could be of interest to you is the amount that you have in your own bank account.This simile may be stretched a bit further for us to know that there are a great number of benefits when we have detailed information about our own bank account, the same logic applies in terms of the significance of knowing about what lies inside us.
And please do not be surprised to know that as all of us have similar physical anatomy similarly we have a great deal of similarly in the internal matter contained by us ,these include our objectives, expectations and goals in life,our knowledge and the degree of its perfection,what values do we have? and are we aware of them ?,etc 
All of Us Are Internally The Same;
When we talk of knowing ourselves , this is a tricky question and this can be answered by the specific individual self and that is it.There may be people who are not too curious to get an answer to this question , but on the other hand there are people who are genuinely anxious to resolve this mystery.Out of the people who go in search of this answer, each one of them has a unique path through which they traverse before they are able to get a satisfactory answer to this question.and at the end of it all the learning is that all of us are internally the same and there is the potential of divinity and devil in all of us.It just depends on us which route do we take.
Reflection of Divinity or Devil Developing Inside Us;
All of us have certain expectations, goals, desires and objectives in life , let us elaborate it a bit further, for example, all of us feeling thirsty at any point in time would like to drink water, this is a basic need, now let us look at the same situation in a different context,for example, if we are in a desert and water is scarce and only limited quantity for each person present there then our behavior would not be the same as in a situation where you could pay money and get as much water as you want.Yet in another situation we do not have enough money to buy even the minimum quantity of water  in a particular point in time,in all of these situations we need to behave in the right way, this is a reflection of divinity or devil developing inside us .we must understand that what is driving our response to the same need in a variety of situations.Please note that this is a simple example where we are just talking about our basic need of quenching the thirst and has nothing to do with the myriad of  expectations, goals, desires and objectives in life.
In this context of the same example if we follow the right etiquette then only we can be said to be moving in the correct direction to be ever able to know ourselves and still it is a long way to go when we come to the objectives we set for ourselves against the fierce competition and a great deal of both the positive as well as negative influences vying for our attention and acceptance, in the face of all these challenges still if we can have the capability to persist, in all fairness, with our goals without loosing compassion for those competing with us and without feeling jealous of those who do better than us in any pursuit, then we can feel that we have started to know ourselves.

God Bless
