This is fear, and as long as fear is there, you have not mastered everything. Therefore, a very important thing is to overcome fear. Bhaya and abhaya: bhaya means fear. Abhaya means fearless. In one bhajan, Gurujī said, "Your Satgurū will protect you, don't worry." Satgurū will protect you, don't worry. Fearless, niśaṅk, without any doubt, kabhī mat daro—never be fearful. That state of consciousness is fearless. All problems in the world are because of fear. All creatures, prāṇī mātra, jīva mātra, have fear. Whether a little ant, a little fly, birds, animals, or humans—fear. Fear is something which is governing all: fear of losing one's position, fear of losing money, fear of losing relationships, fear, fear, ... and the fear of dying, of death. This is the difference between that one and a yogī ... Now, where is the fear? Where is fear rooted? A kde je, kde vlastně, kde koření ten strach? Fear is related and rooted in desire, icchā. Strach je spojený nerozlučně s icchā, s přáním, longing. With the craving: "God, help me, please. Pože, pomoz mi, that I pass my examination." "God, help me, please, that my husband understands me." "God, help me, please, that I overcome my illness." All the time we are bothering God, and when He helps, we forget Him. When everything is done, we don't think of Him. And if, in case, mistakenly He meets you somewhere on the street, you don't even recognize Him. But if He speaks to you, "How are you?" you just say, "Hello. Sorry, I have no time." Then God says, "Okay, God, do something." And you turn back and say, "Please, God, forgive me, I didn't recognize you." Vāsanā, desires, icchā, longing—these are the producers of fear. And if you are above fear, then everything is okay. Recording location: Czech Republic, Strilky, Summer seminar
