Ending Psychological Fear: Understanding Thought, Time, and Conditioning

Image
If we start observing closely to our day to day life then we will find that Human life is deeply intertwined with fear. While physical fear is necessary and is required to protect our life—such as escaping a predator or avoiding fire— psychological fear is of a different nature. It is not rooted in immediate physical threat, but in thought, memory, and imagination . To understand whether psychological fear can truly end, we must first understand how it arises.Why must we understand something before trying to escape it? Because one cannot truly avoid psychological fear without first seeing its roots clearly. If we try to push it away without real understanding, we only create inner conflict. Negating fear by sheer will—saying “I will not be afraid”—does not dissolve fear; it simply hides it temporarily. And whatever is suppressed returns with greater force, bringing anxiety, tension, and stress. Therefore, let us first inquire into the nature of psychological fear, observe how it begin...

Finding Stillness Without Escaping to the Mountains

Image
Yes, at the very moment when you think it’s enough and you should now leave everything or go to the mountains or to the next trip, at that very moment the escapism from “what is” takes us away from the void of the inner self — the very void that gives us the wake-up call to understand reality. This call is the silence between the thoughts, a silence that raises no voice. Instead of understanding the void or Stillness , we choose escapism or Chaos — we choose to run away. Understanding this silence is not easy. It shakes you from the depths of your being and reveals that there is no inherent meaning in life — and that what is truly needed is choiceless awareness, a freedom that does not depend on conditions. This freedom of the self does not want you to run away under the name of “travelling,” actually it asks to take a deep dive into the self. When we choose the path of escapism instead of complete freedom, it gives only temporary relief — like a painkiller that v...

Life is so precious

Image
Life is incredibly precious, and each moment is a gift from God. We only need to approach it with the curiosity of a child, unwrapping it with an open heart to discover what lies within. As we embrace our childlike nature, the external knowledge we have accumulated throughout our lives begins to fade away, and we start accepting the existence of God without questioning the teachings we've received thus far. We have been taught that we belong to a specific religion and should not follow the teachings of other religions. Hindus are told not to enter a Muslim mosque or Jain temple, while Muslims are discouraged from praying in Hindu temples or Christian churches. To truly know God, we must let go of this inherited knowledge that has been passed down for thousands of years and adopt the innocent mind of a child. In doing so, we can feel the presence of God in even the tiniest particles created by Him, permeating every corner of the universe. This childlike mindset serves as the first s...

The Power of the Subconscious Mind: A Bridge Between Philosophy, Science, and Nature

Image
The mind is one of the most powerful and mysterious instruments available to human beings. In both the Western scientific tradition and the ancient Indian philosophical schools, the mind is seen not just as a seat of thoughts, but as a field of energy, emotion, and creative potential. This article explores the power of the subconscious mind —its role in shaping our lives, influencing our habits, and how it can be trained through positivity, creativity, and connection with nature. 1. Conscious, Subconscious, and Unconscious Mind: Western Perspective According to Sigmund Freud and later thinkers in psychology and cognitive science, the mind is divided into three levels: Conscious Mind : This is the active, thinking part of our awareness. It deals with logic, reasoning, and daily decisions. Subconscious Mind : This part stores memories, beliefs, habits, and emotions that influence our conscious actions, often without us realizing it. Unconscious Mind : A deeper realm wher...

Silence is the only way to peace

Image
Before we begin exploring how to find inner peace in today’s chaotic world, it's essential to understand the root cause of our restlessness— excessive communication . Communication, at its core, is the expression of our thoughts and emotions. But with our minds constantly flooded by noise—some purposeful, others not—we lose touch with silence, the very source of peace. If you pause and observe your surroundings, you'll notice that people are often engaged in unnecessary conversations. This over-communication disrupts our inner harmon y. Why do we feel compelled to talk endlessly? Why do we constantly seek someone to listen to us? Is it possible to live more meaningfully by speaking only when truly necessary? These questions are central to the journey of discovering inner peace. To truly find peace, we must first ask: “Who am I?” and “Why am I here?” Are we genuinely interested in such self-inquiry, or have we numbed ourselves with external distrac...

The Journey of Consciousness: Understanding the "Being"

Image
Through the faculty of consciousness, the "Being" interacts with the outer world. While individual beings are bound by time, the eternal "Being" remains untouched, existing beyond the limitations of time. This timeless essence is unchanging and eternal. Consciousness exists on different levels and gains its characteristics through actions—whether physical or mental. These actions create mental volitions, shaping the journey of the "Being" as it traverses from one body to another. These volitions determine whether the "Being" remains bound in the cycle of life or attains liberation, or "moksha." But why do mental volitions arise in the first place? The root lies in the actions of past lives. Time and action form a cyclical chain that perpetuates itself. The body operates in reaction to external stimuli, and every stimulus generates a sensation. When we react to these sensations, "samskaras" (mental impressions) are formed. Thes...

Quantum Steps of the Mind: From Dopamine Sparks to Awareness

Image
Human life often moves between short-lived pleasures and deeper, lasting growth. Modern neuroscience and ancient philosophy both suggest something striking: the mind does not grow in a smooth, endless stream but in steps — like the quantum leaps that Max Planck discovered in physics more than a century ago. Planck’s Quantum Revolution: The Staircase of Energy In 1900, Max Planck showed that energy is not continuous but released in discrete packets called quanta. This idea solved the problem known as the “ultraviolet catastrophe,” where classical physics wrongly predicted infinite energy at higher frequencies. Instead, energy moves like a staircase: electrons jump from one level to another, releasing or absorbing light along the way. Niels Bohr extended this view, explaining that electrons exist in fixed energy levels . Stability in the universe comes because nature works in steps, not in chaos. "Energy is not infinite in its flow — it comes in steps, and so does hum...
