How to Overcome Fears in Daily Life, like Fear of Lizards?

This question on fears in daily life, for example of lizards, was asked by a viewer on our channel (@Trisha Saxena) in March 2019. Many of us face such fears, and we asked this question to Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji during one of his retreats in USA in May 2019. The loving Guru smiles as he read this question. Watch the video to learn what Paramahamsaji has to share on this topic.

    For my case it's fear. My heartbeat get raised and I literally start crying, it's probably because of the incidents, once I killed a lizard it was on door and I closed it, it died really painfully because of me, I just ran away. Once I was in the bathroom I closed the door and a big garden lizard from nowhere came in front of me and believe me I was screaming and crying like hell, it went outside through some hole after few minutes. Once a lizard died in a tub and I touched that water and after that only I on the bulb afterwards I cried for about 30 min on terrace. I still check that door to see if there's something and I still can't get inside that bathroom without fully checking it. I can't count how many times I have been embarrassed because of this. Even at school, I once skipped 2 periods just because there were lizards nearby in the classroom and I got really scared, haha, kids were laughing but only I know how it gives me shivers. Its pretty dumb but I can't help it. I don't hate lizards but I just can't .

    If anyone says that lizards are cute, they automatically become my enemy. Of course you wouldn't understand, only a lizard hater can understand another lizard hater- like me. I understand that feeling of screaming on top of my lungs and getting a heart attack! It may seem unreasonable but God it is hell disgusting, just don't want them dead, that's even more disgusting , just stay away from me you creepy crawly things!

    I just killed a baby lizard... I do not like the feeling of something being somewhere without my attention, especially when I'm my most vulnerable like the restroom. It made me jolt... I'm a 26 year old man. I'm not the hard type of masculinity but I try to figure out why, I hate being scared or intimidated even by the slightest of things. I'm on my way to opening my 3rd eye, through meditation and excersize; I was 436lbs 4 years ago and now I'm 175lbs. I wanna evolve in mindset, outlook and perception.

    Very interesting. I look for the answer to fear and this person tells me that I am the fear. He answered the question. He’s telling us that the lizard 🦎 is just lizard. The lizard is not threatening or dangerous. Lizard does not want to hurt you, lizard is preoccupied with lizard things. So if lizard is innocent and pure in his intention and desire to just BE then I have been afraid of these animals and have even hurt them for no reason other than my own fears. That’s a very beautiful message. I feel like a part of me has broken free.
