Recent times have seen the former heavyweight demigod, Mike Tyson, plagued by various health issues. The most noticeable of which was his sciatica flare-up, making movement extremely difficult for the former champ. These health issues, combined with his advancing age, made Tyson scared about his well-being. Indian yoga guru and spirituality proponent Sadhguru recently put Tyson’s fears at rest by sharing a few snippets about life.

In response, Sadhguru divulged information on the concept of fear. He said, “This has been hugely misinterpreted and misunderstood on various dimensions. Whether it’s fear, or love, or anger, or joy. We need to understand, it’s not about something, it’s by itself. It is not that there must be something that you are afraid of.”

He also mentioned that people can feel emotions without any reason or cause behind it.
