FEAR KILLS

A Sanyasi once met the Cholera Goddess on the road, returning from a village where she had thinned the population. He asked her how many she had taken into her lap; she replied, “Only ten”.

But really speaking, the casualties were a hundred. She explained, “I killed only ten; the rest died out of fear!” Man is Atmaswarupa, that is, Abhayaswarupa. If he knows his real nature, he will give no room for weakness, cowardice.
