    So, can the mind actually ever be free from fear?  That seems to me to be - for any person who is at all serious - one of the most primary and essential questions which must be asked and which must be resolved.  There are physical fears and psychological fears: the physical fears of pain and the psychological fears as memory of having had pain in the past, and the idea od the repetition of that pain in the future; also the fears of old age, death, the fears f physical insecurity, the fears of the uncertainty of tomorrow, the fears of not being able to be a great success, not being able to achieve - of not being somebody in this rather ugly world; the fears of destruction, the fears of loneliness, not being able to love or be loved, and so on; the conscious fears as well as the unconscious fears.  Can the mind be free, totally, of all this?
