In a previous video titled Conquer Your Fears we saw that one of the ways to overcome our fears especially of insects, snakes, dogs and other creatures is to try to see the presence of God within their soul. This was the attitude taken by Sri Ramakrishna.
- So if a snake ever bites us, should we also similarly concentrate our mind on God instead of running to seek medical help?
- Should we pick up poisonous insects like centipedes and play with them?
- Should we go pet a rabid dog?
In this video we see why the answer to all these questions is a BIG NO!
