Abhinivesha is the primal fear of annihilation or non-existence that runs beneath conscious anxiety about dying. In yogic psychology, it's understood not as neurosis but as a structural survival mechanism that, when unexamined, drives much of our defensive behavior—compulsive planning, denial, or grasping. Recognizing it directly, rather than through its symptoms, loosens its hold on decision-making.
