Fear

Move forward with courage

Bhagavad Gita 18.58

"Fixing your mind on me, you will, by my grace, cross over all difficulties; but if from egoism you do not listen, you will perish."

Modern interpretation

In the middle of the day, return to this: Fear shrinks when attention rises above the small, defended self.

Practical action

Name the worst that could happen, then ask yourself: could I begin to handle it?

Reflection question

What would I do next if I knew I couldn't ultimately be diminished?
