FEAR: A Positive Aspect of Life

-
Fear! Fear!! Fear!!!

    What is fear? Is it something we should worry ourselves about? Is it something we should hate? Is it something that is negative?

    No. The answer to all these questions is no. Fear is something we should never worry about nor hate nor is it negative. Fear is a part of life. It is something that can never be avoided in life. It is something that we should embrace and accept as humbly as we can for it is the path to success as well. The opposite to fear is courage. Fear is thus the path to courage. What is courage if there is no fear?

    The fear of something is what gives rise to courage. When one overcomes one's fear with courage, then the path to success opens up. Both fear and courage are like the stem and roots of a plant. One can never exist without the other. If we take fear and courage as the two sides of a coin, their true relation can be seen ever so clearly. Let us consider the head part of the coin as courage and the tail part as fear. Put the coin flat on the surface of the table with the head facing upwards, the tail remains but only becomes hidden. In the same way, put the tail facing upwards, the head remains but hidden. Hence, in the same way, even if a situation arises in which only fear is seen, courage is always there waiting to be found. Even the bravest of being has fear even if the being cannot show it openly. Likewise, even the weakest of all has courage, just waiting to be found.

The situation was not only of violence but also became a basis of racism with people blaming the entire Newa community for the situation.      The god Machhindranath also known as the lord Avalokiteshvara, Bungadeya, Padmapani, Lokeshvara  & also as  " करुणामय "  is one of the most respected deity in the Newa culture.

    Everything that exists in the world has two sides. Each side is necessary for the other side's existence. The disappearance of one side may lead to the disappearance of the other side as well. Both the sides must co-exist in harmony for proper functioning of the society.     For example, what is the value of good if there is no evil to compare it with in the world. A coin too has two sides. There is no coin that has only one side. In the same way, a human also has two sides. It can be the good side or the bad side. It can also be taken as the side of our nature that we show in the public and the other the one that we hide from the society.     Therefore, everything is the world that exists has an opposite and both sides must exist in harmony for proper functioning of the world.
