Acharya Prashant explains that fear is not something that happens to a person involuntarily; rather, it is a choice rooted in one's intentions, greed, and self-definition. He argues that fear follows desire, greed, and falsehood. One cannot expect to live a life filled with worldly cravings and beautiful dreams while simultaneously demanding freedom from fear. He likens the attempt to live a wrong life while seeking freedom from anxiety to taking an anti-anxiety pill while refusing to acknowledge the natural consequences of one's actions. True fearlessness cannot be achieved without letting go of the greed and attachments that cause fear in the first place.
