“ Face the brutes! That is a lesson for all life—face the terrible, face it boldly.

Like the monkeys, the hardships of life fall back when we cease to flee before them.


Those who are overcautious about themselves fall into dangers at every step;

those who are afraid of losing honor and respect, get only disgrace; and those

who are always afraid of loss, always lose.


Fear is death, fear is sin, fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life;

all the negative thoughts and ideas that are in the world have proceeded from this evil spirit of fear.”



---Swami Vivekanand
