Fear: Understanding and Accepting the Insecurities of Life

I’m gonna have to reread this book many times!!! There is true freedom found in these pages!!! I hope they make an audiobook out of this someday.

This has been by far my favorite read of 2023. Would recommend for any that are seeking enlightenment, encouragement or just a broader perspective of philosophy and thinking.

I gave this book five stars because osho did a tremendous job explaining fear. Osho says if you fear something, accept it and jump out there anyway. He also explain how fear can make you miss opportunity and he stated that people are afariad of rejected so that why people don't take risks. This book apply to me because I was afariad of rejection and I feared allot of things. Osho has help me to understand that it's ok to fear but don't let it control your life and if you love more, fear disappears. I am going to jump out there and be a fool like osho said. I'm going to take more risk and when fear arises, accept it and keep stepping out my comfort zone to make me fearless. Form this point on im living dangerously.

I enjoyed reading through this book. It has those insecurities of fear answered in a good way. I think one should give it a look.

Probably one of the better Osho books, but that just means the content spoke to me at the time of its reading. Osho tackles fear in the poetic yet straight forward way that he is known for. Osho's method is that of accepting your fears, and experiencing them fully and in that experience fear begins to loosen its grip on you. It's not that you avoid your fears, but rather understand them and where they come from. Once that is understood, fear can actually begin to give you great insights into your being and conditioning.

A must read for all who seek some answers to a very common problem for most of us. The truth in Oshos words cuts like the sharpest knife, and it is that fact tha make his teachings so appealing. Instinctively, and in a very deep, and mysterious sense we all seek the truth within us, so when we find it in one or other way we immediately know it because it resonates deep down to our core of our being". Incredibly fascinating reading.

OSHO takes you out of your " programmed world" to whole new level of thinking and freedom that you've seldom if ever experienced. His insight is beyond comprehension. I loved the book and came away with a whole new outlook.

I stumbled across this book by doing a Google search on the phrase: love and fear cannot occupy the same space. I had never heard of OSHO but after reading the excerpt provided on line, I immediately ordered this book. After reading it in a few days, I ordered five more copies to give to friends. The concepts are written in plain language, and in spite of the fact that he was an Indian philosopher from a different generation, they get right to the point of what makes human beings afraid and how we can overcome the fear. I highly recommend this book to anyone who ever wondered why we all are so afraid of ourselves.
