According to Buddhist monk Ringu Tulku Rinpoche, somewhere in the middle of all this action also come emotions like aversion and attachment...leading to destruction of others, and culminating in the destruction of oneself...
Thus, fear becomes the supreme negative emotion...which causes an Apocalypse-like situation in our lives...
Therefore, it becomes absolutely crucial to face, manage and subdue such fear...only whjen we do that, do we allow the good inside us to emerge and taste victory.
Isn't this also what all our scriptures say? Isn't this what our glorious history has proved over and over again? That it's all about victory of good over evil, but in what sense? It's the victory in our minds.
Listen to the Rinpoche tell you how important it is to deal with fear. He says fear is regarded as a time or demon in Buddhist faith - because it is the root cause of all evil...
