About this listen

This book explores the fundamental concepts of fear and fearlessness as driving forces behind human behavior throughout the ages. It offers a philosophical and psychological examination of these emotions, tracing them from the earliest survival instincts to their lingering influence on modern society. The author considers how fears shape identity, cultural norms, and social structures, while also proposing ways to transcend them through awareness, inner freedom, and a creative approach to life. The book emphasizes that in a world where technological progress has already solved—or at least could solve—many of humanity’s basic problems, fear is still wielded as a tool of control. Through the lens of progress and civilization, the author investigates whether a society can be built where fear no longer dictates our actions, making way instead for creation and freedom.
