ON FEAR is on of a series of theme books compiled from the talks, writings, and dialogues of J Krishnamurti. Can a human being totally eradicate fear? Can we do anything, or nothing? The nothing does not mean we accept fear, rationalize it, and live with it; that's not the inaction of which we ar talking. We have done everything we can with regard to fear. We have analysed it, gone into it, tried to face it, come into direct contact with it, resisted it, done everything possible, and the thing remains. Is it possible to be aware of it totally, not merely intellectually, emotionally, but be completely aware of it and yet not do something about it?
