We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it. ~J. Krishnamurti Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. ~Nelson Mandela When you do not realize that you are one with the river, or one with the universe, you have fear.

Trust, on the other hand, is a quality of the soul. While control is a tool of the mind, trust and faith are aspects of the heart. When we trust in life enough to give up our need for control, we can relax and open to the flow of energy in our lives. This brings peace of mind. ~ The Daily Guru If you knew who walks beside you on this path that you have chosen, fear would be impossible. ~A Course in Miracles Fear is the static that prevents me from hearing my intuition. ~Hugh Prather Ultimately we know deeply that the other side of every fear is a freedom. ~Marilyn Ferguson Every kind of fear grows worse by not being looked at. ~Bertrand Russell Fear is a distraction from ‘what is,’ from the present actual moment, preventing us from existing, from being what we are. ~Vanda Scaravelli We must travel in the direction of our fear. ~John Berryman Fear is only as deep as the mind allows. ~Japanese proverb Every time you look into the face of fear, it disappears but if you keep looking to the shadow, it grows and grows. ~Satyananda If you do not come face to face with your fear, you will find yourself always running away from them. ~anonymous Our deepest fears are like dragons guarding our deepest treasures. ~Rainer Maria Rilke To him who is in fear everything rustles. ~Sophocles Once you realize that all comes from within, that the world in which you live is not projected onto you, but by you, your fear comes to an end. ~Nisargadatta Maharaj To fear anything is to believe you are separate from God. ~Emmet Fox A further sign of health is that we don’t become undone by fear and trembling, but we take it as a message that it’s time to stop struggling and look directly at what’s threatening us. ~Pema Chodron No one ever tells us to stop running away from fear…the advice we usually get is to sweeten it up, smooth it over, take a pill, or distract ourselves, but by all means make it go away. ~Pema Chodron Complexes are crystallized fears. Energy in them is “tied in knots” and circulates no longer. ~Dane Rudhyar Each precious moment of your life in which you are frozen with fear is a moment when you are not being all you can be. In the end, that hurts more than anything. Succeeding or failing does not determine if we are surviving or living. Rather it is in our ability to reach beyond our present self-imposed definition of who we are, and to risk becoming more, that we are able to feel fully alive. ~Rhonda Britten People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar. ~Thich Nhat Hanh I know that I do not need to know, and that I do not need to be afraid of not knowing. God knows. That is all that matters. ~Frederick Buechner We take refuge in pride because we are afraid to tell the truth to ourselves. ~Kakuzo Okakura Just being ourselves is the biggest fear of humans. We have learned to live our life trying to satisfy other people’s demands. We have learned to live by other people’s points of view because of the fear of not being accepted and of not being good enough for someone else. ~Don Miguel Ruiz As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~Marianne Williamson Expose yourself to your deepest fear, and after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free. ~Jim Morrison There is nothing scary about life, if you are not attached to results. ~Neale Donald Walsch
