Selections
from the Works of
Sri Aurobindo and The Mother
Compiled with Introductions
by Ameeta Mehra
Dear Reader,
Fear is a universal
phenomenon that we have to deal with in our life, whether it be physical
or mental fear. In fact, because we as mortals do not know, either the
future or ourselves fully, there is always one or the other kind of
anxiety or fear that lodges itself in us.
But if we are to live
masterfully, an understanding of Fear, its cause and cure is, perhaps,
fundamental to our quest for delight and poise.
This compilation has emerged
from interactive sessions on Fear held with both students and
professionals from different age groups, so you will find that its
approach is participative and practical.
Ameeta Mehra
Note: A series of paintings
by a mystic artist, 'Champaklal', has been included as a support to the
text, for meditation and contemplation, and can be a source of strength
and knowledge.
