The Bhagavata Purana mentions this:
भयं द्वितीयाभिनिवेशतः स्यादीशादपेतस्य विपर्ययोऽस्मृतिः ।
Bhayaṁ dvitīyābhiniveśataḥ syād īśād apetasya viparyayo'smṛtiḥ
This means that ‘Fear arises only when we perceive a "second" (separateness)—when we forget our true, unified nature and see the world as full of external threats. It is a distortion of reality (viparyaya) caused by a lapse in self-awareness.’ This means that when we realize that the external obstacle and your internal strength are part of the same life fabric, the illusion of the threat vanishes.
Obstacles, failures, and uncertainties are merely external conditions, but fear is an internal anchor that locks us in place, not letting us move ahead.
Fear distorts our vision and magnifies our doubt.
However, the moment we realize that fear is just a shadow cast by our own mind to avoid pain, the power of fear over us fails.
When you strip away the panic and face your challenges with a clear, defiant mind, you unlock your unbreakable resilience.
