Summary, etc The author amply discusses root causes of fear and worry, and how one would succumb to fear and worry in everyday life in a number of chapters that include beauty, dealing with enemies and criticism, love, wealth, human dignity, mental abuse, mental health and fear of death. Giving solutions to overcome such feelings in a broader Buddhist perspective, the author states, "According to Buddha, the characteristic of every component is that it appears, decays and disappears in a never-ending process. All component things are subject to ceaseless change and conflict (dukkha). It is endured by all suffering beings who believe in permanent entity or soul. This gives rise to selfish desire which can never be satisfied thus leading to fear and worry."<br/><br/>A good part of his book also discusses negative feelings and thoughts such as anger, jealousy and the danger of selfishness and their consequences. He pushes us to go through a reality check about our innermost feelings. Yet, he describes how one can overcome such feelings by gaining control over moods in the struggle of daily life by paying heed to Buddha's teachings.
