Teachings on Fearlessness from Bhagavad Gita
Serene-minded, fearless, firm in the vow of Brahmacharya,
having controlled the mind, thinking on Me and balanced, let him sit, having Me
as the Supreme Goal. (6.14)
Intellect, wisdom, non-delusion, forgiveness, truth, self-restraint,
calmness, happiness, pain, birth or death, fear and also
fearlessness…non-injury, equanimity, contentment, austerity, beneficence, fame,
infamy --- all these different kinds of "qualities-of-beings" arise
from Me alone. (10.4-5)
Fearlessness belongs to one born of Divine Estate (16.1)
That which knows the paths of work and renunciation, what
ought to be done and what ought not to be done, fear and fearlessness, bondage
and liberation, that "understanding" is Sattwic (pure) , O Partha.
(18.30)
He by whom the world is not agitated (affected) , and who
cannot be agitated by the world, who is freed from joy, envy, fear, and anxiety
--- he is dear to me. (12.15)
