In enjoyments, there is the fear of disease;

In social position, the fear of falling off;

In wealth, the fear of hostile kings;

In honour, the fear of humiliation;

In power, the fear of enemies;

In beauty, the fear of old age;

In scholarship, the fear of learned opponents;

In virtue, the fear of slander;

In body, the fear of death.

- (Vairagya Shatakam 31)

All the things in the world are associated with fear.

Detachment alone leads to fearlessness.
