"There are not only the conscious fears of which one is aware, but also those that are deep down, undiscovered in the deep recesses of one’s mind. How is one to deal with conscious fears as well as those that are hidden? Surely, fear is in the movement away from ‘what is’; it is the flight, the escape, the avoidance, of actuality that brings about fear. Also, when there is comparison of any kind, there is the breeding of fear—the comparison of what you are with what you think you should be. So fear is the movement away from what is actual, not in the object from which you move away. None of these problems of fear can be resolved through will—saying to oneself, “I will not be afraid.”
