Where there is weaknessOctober 19, 2008 The basis of Yogananda's book is weakness and perhaps fears. The book consists of Yogananda quotations thematically arranged, and much revolves around fear and worry.
"May I Overcome Fear", "Practical Anecdotes for Fear and Worry", "Ridding the Consciousness of Worry" and focus on fearlessness reveals that fear and worries make a book market.
Now in the case of neurotic fears and worries, therapy might help. A realistic appraisal of things feared and worried about, can help too. However, a blunt denial of fear and worry and of their possibly reasonable foundations, may do more harm than good. There is that danger with shortsighted "kindergarten books" in the school of life.
Completely Eliminating Fear to Fulfill Your LifeFebruary 28, 2004 70 out of 72 found this review helpful
The Divine words of Paramahansa Yogananda delivers the one message that will set you free from fear and its debilitating effects in your life. That message is to recognize and connect fully to your divine source, to God, and how this omniscient presence is within you, at all times. It is within your heart and soul. By focusing on how Divine Source is with you, in you, and as you at all times, you will come to discover that you are never alone.
A wonderful message is that fear is humankind's greatest enemy. By renewing your MIND, and focusing on your Divine heritage, you will come to trust that God is on your side. You will learn through this book that your circumstances are to draw you closer to your connection to Divine Source, so that you can follow your inner guidance, take proactive action in your life, and cast out fear completely. In this way you will come to know the immense Divine creative power you do have, and how circumstances are merely passing occurrences. You, however, are eternal. Your creative capacity comes from your Divine connection to the greatest power in this Universe, and that is Love.
HIGHLY recommended if fear has been in your life, preventing you from claiming every Divine gift and experience you deserve. This book will help you cast out fear forever.

"Stand unshaken amidst the crash of breaking worlds"...November 19, 2003 52 out of 54 found this review helpful
The editors at Self-Realization Fellowship have again produced a beautifully inspiring and motivating volume, drawing on some of the great yoga master's inimitable expressions of eternal truth. Drawing partly from talks published elsewhere (e.g., Man's Eternal Quest and The Divine Romance), this volume also includes life-empowering quotes that would otherwise have to be culled from the years of Yogananda's Self-Realization Lessons - plus a couple of other essays not elsewhere in print. In the latter category is a brilliant piece on faith, fearlessness, and the uprooting of unconscious fears. In times of tremendous uncertainty and world-upheaval the reassurance offered by such pieces as "Ridding the Consciousness of Worry" and "Removing the Static of Fear" are real treasures. It is exquisitely comforting to read how Yogananda himself handled threats of economic disaster in "Finding Inner Assurance that God Is With You" - one more demonstration that he does not speak from abstract theory but from principles that he has tested and proven in his own life. He never tells you that it will be easy - only that the power of attunement with your soul will lead you to VICTORY over the most difficult challenges. His life and those of his advanced students are testimony to that truth. Seldom has a tiny volume combined so effectively the most advanced concepts of psychology with the most divine insights into the power of faith. This is destined to become another classic of PRACTICAL SPIRITUALITY - perhaps rivaled only by his AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A YOGI (ISBN 0876120834 ) and THE LAW OF SUCCESS (ISBN 0876121504 )
