Fearlessness of Yogi Soldier and Extremist
Fearlessnessof yogi, extremist and soldier:
A yogi has realised the perishability of body and is not attached to anything in this world. A yogi is beyond the realm of dharma and adharm. He is amoral. Now, his realm is cosmic consciousness. His activities synchronise with the cosmic law. He is in sync with the cosmic law i.e Brahman. That's why he is called Brahmachari. Also, he doesn't have anything to lose. That's why he is fearless.
A soldier's fearlessness is duty bound and supported by patriotism. A soldier simply performs his duty but he follows in fact dharma because dharma means duty. It is said in the Gita that:
स्वधर्मे निधनं श्रेयस्कर
परधर्मो भयावह:।
To perform your duties is to follow dharma in true sense. And this dharma is based on the cosmic law. To maintain the cosmic order every one is supposed to perform his duties. The disorder in the creation is the result of adharm.
But an extremist is either working for money or he has been brain washed due to his ignorance.
Extremist commits crime in the name of Dharma and God, but in fact he is involved in adharmic activities. His fearlessness is a type of recklessness or irresponsible behaviour.
