Conquer Your Fear, Conquer Your Mind

Reduce Your Fears To Ashes Under Your Feet…

“Concentrate on where you want to go, not on what you fear.”
– Anthony Robbins, motivational speaker and author of several best-sellers.

Do you ask yourself, who would you like to become? What do you want to have, do, or create? What do you want to earn and contribute?

If you want to achieve something, you must clear the way to it of all the things that are blocking you from making progress. So what stops most people from getting what they want? FEAR! Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of rejection, fear of the unknown, fear of disappointment – they are all the same! Fear is always at the source of those blockages. Fear is a darkroom where negatives develop. If not addressed, fear eventually eats away your self-confidence, prevents you from feeling empowered.

If you avoid something that makes you afraid, would that take care of the problem? On the contrary, avoidance fuels anxiety. That’s because when you avoid something you fear, you do not give yourself the chance to verify if the fear is justified. When you want self mastery, you need to identify your fears and set about strategies for conquering your fears.

Many people who are in constant fear are unable to explain what they are afraid of. For some, it is just a pressure they cannot identify. Unfortunately, you cannot fight anything you cannot define. If we want to get rid of our fears, we must know what it is first.

Transform your fear into positive energy. When you learn to do this, every other aspect of your life is affected. Difficult situations become easier to handle. You have new energy to make important decisions, take new directions, and to cope with changes and transitions.

Walking on fire is really about walking through fear. Step through your fears and achieve the seemingly impossible!

During Anthony Robbins’ recent LIVE seminar “Unleash the Power Within”, there was a special guest as participant – OPRAH WINFREY!  Oprah Winfrey is an ultimate example of someone who has overcome the most extreme odds to create an extraordinary life of service & contribution!

After sitting through over 12 hours of “Unleash the Power Within” seminar by Tony Robbins, Oprah decided to participate in hot coal walking. Oprah joined several thousand people to experience firsthand one of his “Breakthrough” sessions, where she overcame a major fear of her own – firewalking! This inspiring video shows you how Oprah walked across the glowing coals overcoming her fears.

I just cant wait to meet Anthony Robbins in person! Those of you who have watched Shallow Hal might remember him....

Controversies of the Cults- PART I

The longer that I stayed away from my blog, the easier it was to stay away, if you know what I mean. With hell lot of serious writing happening 8-10 hours a day at work, its was not very hard to stay away from my beloved blog. What can I say? Words just refused to flow. But its time to get back into the groove and pick up where I left. A lots happened in the past few months to write about which I shall try to cover in the days to come. First and foremost is my research and in-depth reading on the cults! There's a whole new weird world out there, I tell you! Crazy, weird yet thought provoking! Makes one wonder how human minds work.. Psychosis - is what I would call it. What makes one desperate enough to turn towards cults that only mess up the already messed-up mind? Surprisingly, many of the followers and disciples being accomplished psychotherapists, VIP's and artists!

Few main cult leaders that caught my attention were Osho, Ma Ananda Sheela, Jim Jones of Jonestown Massacre, U J Krishnamurthy( not a cult but a godsman (???) )Swami Nithyananda (godsman again). I intend to write about all these so called enlightened ones ..

Rajneesh a.k.a OSHO:

"Sex should lead man to his soul. The goal is from lust to light." Rajneesh broke the taboo on sex. The Indian born guru was a controversial figure in the eyes of many without any doubt. He mesmerized thousands with his words and logic.No spiritual person ever spoke about sex so openly as Osho did. But was Rajneesh really enlightened, given his scandals and disastrous public image?

Osho's seen it all. Love, hate, trust, suspicion, fame,allegations.The flow of disciples had become a flood in the early 1970's. 'Sex Guru' in 1980's and his 'sannyasins'  as they were referred to, left for Oregon USA to build their own town of Rajneeshpuram.[ I wasn't even born then! Its hard to believe at those times Rajneesh advocated sex so openly!] In Oregon he set up the commune, Rajneeshpuram in making himself the ultimate dictator of Rajneeshpuram..Maroon-robed men and women, mainly foreigners, streaming in and out of the gates. Osho  got into controversy because of his elite lifestyle

Take a look at the video to see how prosperous the small ranch became in just 3 years after the disciples built it with their own hands, and how Rajneesh led a life of a king with his subjects blindly worshipping him in the land of free sex.

Oregon was a community completely created, and managed by his rich disciples which included a five star hotel, huge recreational centers, and also an aerodrome. Osho had some 99 Rolls Royce, diamond-studded Swiss watches and an aircraft of his own. He also got into controversy by calling Pope a homosexual, Jesus an unfertilized egg.. To add to it, Ma Anada Sheela the mouth piece and  personal secretary of Rajneesh took over and in a power stupor brought on chaos and murder plots into the commune.. Rajneesh used people, spoke out of both sides of his mouth, and betrayed the trust of his own disciples Heres a short video of Ma anada Sheela in an interview.. Judge for yourself! More on Ma Ananda Sheela in the coming days to be posted..

So what was really going on with Osho and psychedelics? He approved of ingestion of high doses of charas, ecstacy in rituals, nitrous oxide, LSD's ! Speculations are rife that Rajneesh used "hypnosis" to manipulate his disciples.For a man who portrayed himself as the world's smartest and greatest soul,  his drug use had destroyed the quality of his mind. Notoriety continued to surround Rajneesh with sanyasins contracting AIDS, trying to poison residents of Oregon in an attempt to take over and expand Rajneeshpuram. Towards his end Osho even got paranoid and erratic in his behavior.. perhaps the drug abuse took its toll??

Controversy obviously has not died with Osho. The Ashram still has numerous followers seeking what? Free Sex...? I only wonder, can people really be foolish enough to fall into traps of such phony men??
