Theosophy and Fear

Dear friends,
I have been pondering the following:
If man gains knowledge & wisdom and has a sense
of security in doing so; Why is he in constant fear?
Did he not learn in his history why others may cause
him to have fear? F.D. Roosevelt proclaimed that;
"All we have to fear, is fear itself." Yet man fears
each other all the time. Why? Because what one does
to the other does not agree; and the one is no better
than the other. For all maim, kill, impose injustice
and terror upon the other.
So in my Wisdom I say fear can be eliminated if the
anger, the greed, and the ego were done away with by
all, and pronto.
Why in mans wisdom would we celebrate tearing down
a wall of fear in the 80's (iron curtain); and build
a new one in the Middle East in 2003. Because we
prefer fear to peace?! Where is the wisdom in that ?
As a rose is a rose is a rose, so does fear beget fear
beget fear.
" All we have to peace, is peace itself. "
What does H.P.B. say on fear? Anyone!
Peace to all,
in the new year,
Alden
