00:00Sir, is fear helpful because it comes from mother nature?
00:05Fear is something animistic and that does not take away from the fact that fear helps.
00:10Fear helps but it helps the survival of the body.
00:14So what are you?
00:15Consciousness or body?
00:16Anything that relates to the body is important but far less important than anything that
00:21relates to your consciousness.
00:24But between these two, which one is more important?
00:27Consciousness is more important.
00:28What is good for the body but bad for consciousness is not acceptable.
00:32Fear is that.
00:34Fear is something that is good for your physical survival.
00:37Fear is an evolutionary tool, helps you live a longer life.
00:42But it is not good for your consciousness.
00:45What's the point in living a long life if life is full of fear?
