Yogi Bhajan gave a lecture in 1988 on the Psychology of Fear, one of his opening quotes is, “We don’t even have an iota of understanding what God is all about. We have no consequences to even face, no story to even tell. And God does it all, but we feel we do it all. The life is based on insecurity, fear.”
“We don’t understand what the divine concept is really about. About what we are about. If we did we would not fear life.”
Everything is done for us, planets are held in perfect balance with one another, the magnetic resonance of the moon lends our planet, including us, rhythm inside and outside of us, our mother planet brings forth life in such variety and richness and beauty without our control, without our meddling. This grass grows of itself. Our hearts beat without our conscious instruction. We arrive into this life the same way as every other living thing, from source. This planet and others sit in relationship to each other by forces known and unknown to us; we ourselves don’t have to fight to keep our feet on the floor as the earth spins around, we don’t fall off this turning planet when we are upside down. The balancing forces of life provide for us with everything we need to live. From food, to air, to beauty, love and equilibrium.
So when we really pause and take consideration and sit in the wonder of these facts. Can we really get a feel for the facts. Can we allow ourselves to experience this truth.
Why do we forget the simplicity of this truth? How do we act when we forget this truth?
YB “This is how you distribute your time – you give 60-70 percent to your ego; 40 percent to your imaginations; 10-15 percent to self-pity. So in total you give about 40-60% to your insecurities. At best you give 3-5 percent of your own time to your own divinity. A person who gives 10-15 percent of his time to divinity is considered a saint.
Give your evenings to happiness on Earth, and your mornings to God. Evening is a time of rest. Make sure evenings are passed in elevated human relationship. Avoid any situation which will drag you down. Be in the company of the holy.
“There are meditations, and then there are happy groups and groups of satans. Yeah, you walk out, you’ll find 200 yogis and 300 groups and 600 teachings and 800 religions and their branches and priests and padres… swamis and all that whole thing, but not a single person can take away the fear of the man! Isn’t it a shame?” YB
A fundamental human characteristic – everyone is afraid and acts out of fear. From education, dating, house buying, food manufacturing, banking, crime, health, marriage, ageing.
“Fear makes us short term. We become bootstrappers. Survivalists. It makes us stupid.”
We are born into a psychology of lack not abundance. So that our very source of doing comes from what is necessary to avoid pitfalls, disaster, prepare for the future, safeguard, be hyper alert to danger. We then live on adrenalin and we overextend ourselves as we try to shore up certainty and reduce uncertainty.
Maybe we feel we need a drink every evening to relax, or go to the movies, or watch telly, or go out to dinner – do something! We don’t train ourselves to sit on our butts. So we don’t have nerves.
We inherit a lot of neuroses, we need to develop nerves of steel so that we can build confidence to view things from a different height, so that we can let go of some illusions and feel our feet are still on the ground, the rock beneath our feet is still there. We have to begin from where we are to clear the obstacles so we can feel confidence in the essence and flow of life that is there for us all the time. We really start off on the back foot you know? We do this with daily practice, awareness training, we retrain how we see things so that we have a greater capacity for meeting the beauty of life, to go through the fear of non believing to allow ourselves the experience of true manifestation. The adjustment of our vision line.

Kundalini Yoga teaches that the treatment of fear is nerve conditioning / nerve training. You have to have guts to be still. You have to have the strength not to react when the hunger or the itch is so strong and feels so true.
So what gives us the guts to even acknowledge this and then start. You have to have nobility. Cause to protect your own honour, to understand your place as king or queen of your own worldview, self view. If you recognise you are ready to be your number one fan, your supporter, your hero / heroine, your own parent, your own nobility you will begin to train your self to maintain your nobility, protect it.
This is when a meditation, a kriya starts to work for us – this is our invisible power – aligning your thoughts, intentions around a central cause – your nobility, your worth as a living organism (not aggrandised above something else or below something else). When you are really ready to acknowledge your existence. The miracle of your existence, the miracle that we each are.The gratitude and humility arrive so that you just sit down in awe. So now this is the integrity and dignity of living truth.
YB “If we don’t love integrity and dignity we don’t know who we are and we can’t love anything.”
Pure religion is just pure realism of self-acknowledgment and self-experience. This is God.
There is no one sitting on a cloud judging you. If you cannot allow yourself to sit, analyse and consider the very source of you to the point of acknowledging your ignorance – whatever deity you pray, whatever science you follow, whatever religious dogma you live by, if you do not willingly let go to receive you will will never find peace or contentment.
We can try to divorce ourselves from source, separate ourselves from nature, put ourselves above animals, build cities and towns and cling to bright lights and movies, hide in and around each other practicing forgetting. No matter how much distance we create, how much we try to fix things, dampen feelings, numb ourselves, distract ourselves, minimise nature, invest to go to the moon or mars, we can never leave ourselves.
Source is within us and all around us. Source is waiting for us to stop spinning, waiting for her chance to show you that you already have everything. You will see, you will then feel it and you will then be able to stop the madness. The distractions. You will stop trying to outrun fear.
Fear of our own longing. Fear that we are alone.
Fear is good of course when the tiger is on our heels…
YB “But just to live out of fear, deal out of fear, think in fear, imagine and create from a fear, love in fear – it’s a terrible slap in the face of your creator. Fear is betrayal of source, betrayal of godliness.
So we are no longer innocent, clear or pure. We can’t be because we think WE have to survive. You don’t believe that the energy that can rotate the earth can take care of your daily routine.”
So go ahead you have 3 mins to get real. Get honest and acknowledge your fears. what will happen if I don’t succeed…? What will happen if i don’t manage to do what i need to do, what I’m trying to do? Etc
And 3 mins to get even more real. Get honest and acknowledge your beliefs around the source that bought you forth into this life. That which existed before us, and continues after us. You are supported and nourished by a self-organising energy beyond your imagination. Can you rest into that?
