Hi,
I am sending below some excerts of H.P.B about fear.
For what I understand fear on the light of theosophy
is rooted in the ignorance.
"He, who fully recognised the power of his immortal
spirit, and never doubted for one moment its
omnipotent protection, had naught to fear. But woe to
the candidate in whom the slightest physical
fear—sickly child of matter—made him lose sight and
faith in his own invulnerability. He who was not
wholly confident of his moral fitness to accept the
burden of these tremendous secrets was doomed."
Isis Unveiled. ii. 119.

Dear Erica,
The type of fear I was refering to was fear imposed by
by one on another using suicide bombings, killing others just
outside your built walls, etc. That is: imposing fear because
of their own greed, anger, and ego or beliefs. Anger, Greed,
and Ego when summed up equal to hate. So the original
point was where is the wisdom in all these, as man claims
to be intelligent & full of his own wisdom.
