All wars have their origin in fear.
The gestapo, torture, concentration camps, Siberias, horrible prisons, exiles, forced labour, firing squads, etc., have their origin in fear.

Every bitterness of this world has its origins in the search for security and fear. Schoolteachers should teach their students the virtue of courage.
It is unfortunate that children are filled with fear in their own home. Children are threatened, intimidated, terrorized, and beaten.
It is the custom of parents and teachers to terrorize children and teenagers with the purpose of forcing them to study.
It is common to tell children and teenagers that if they do not study they will have to beg for money and they will wander the streets starving or will work in humble jobs such as shoe shining, carrying bales, selling newspapers, etc., (as if work was a crime).
Deep down, behind all the words of parents and teachers, there exists fear for children and the search for security for children.
The serious thing about all of this is that the child or teenager develops complexes, he becomes fearful and later on in life, becomes a person filled with fear.
Parents and teachers who have the bad taste of frightening children and teenagers in an unconscious way, take them down a path of crime, as we have already said, every crime has its origins in fear and the search for security.
Nowadays, FEAR and the SEARCH FOR SECURITY have turned the planet Earth into a horrible hell. The whole world fears and wants security.
In bygone days one could travel freely, but now borders are filled with armed guards; passports and certificates of every type are demanded to be able to go from one country into another.
All of this is the result of fear and the SEARCH FOR SECURITY. He who arrives is feared, and security is found in passports and papers of all types.
Schoolteachers, college and university lecturers should understand the horror of all this and cooperate for the good of the world, by knowing how to educate the new generations and teaching them the path of real values.
It is imperative to teach new generations not to fear and not to search for securities in anything or anyone.
It is indispensable that every individual learns to be more confident in himself.
FEAR and THE SEARCH FOR SECURITY are terrible weaknesses that transform life into a terrifying hell.
Everywhere abound fearful cowards and weak people who are always in search for security.
Life is feared, death is feared; other people’s opinions, gossip is feared; the loss of a social or political positions feared, the loss of prestige, money, a lovely house, a beautiful woman, a good husband, a job, a business, a monopoly, the furniture, the car, etc., is feared. Everything is feared.
Cowards, fearful people, weak people abound everywhere. However, nobody thinks himself a coward, everyone boasts of being strong, of being courageous, etc.
In all social classes there exist thousands of millions of interests that one fears to lose and because of this everyone looks for securities that become more and more complex, making life more difficult, complicated, bitter, cruel, and merciless.
All gossip, slander, intrigues, etc., have their origins in fear and in the search for security.
Samael Aun Weor
To avoid losing our wealth, position, power and prestige; slander and gossip are propagated, murder is committed and people secretly pay for murders to be committed.
Powerful people on earth even have the luxury of having salaried and well paid murderers with a loathsome purpose of eliminating any one who threatens to eclipse them.
They love power for the sake of power and assure themselves of it on the basis of money and much blood.
Newspapers are constantly reporting news of many suicide cases.
Many believe that anyone who commits suicide is brave, but really anyone who commits suicide is a coward who fears life and looks for security in the fleshless arms for death.
Some war heroes were known as weak and cowardly people, when they saw themselves face to face with death their terror was so frightening that they became terribly wild searching for security for their life, and in making a supreme effort against death they were then declared Heroes.
Fear is often confused with courage. He who commits suicide seems to be very brave. He who carries a gun appears to be very brave, but in reality, people who commit suicide and carry guns are very coward.
He who does not fear life will not commit suicide. He who does not fear anyone will not carry a gun on his waist.
It is imperative that schoolteachers teach citizens in a clear and precise way what true COURAGE is and what fear is.
FEAR and THE SEARCH FOR SECURITY have turned the world into a dreadful hell.
Samael Aun Weor
