"We cannot raise our own consciousness sufficiently or the consciousness of others if the duality of fear and aggression has captured our minds. Fear allows maya or evil to enter deep into a person's consciousness because it destroys the shield of love that blocks or eliminates the attack. Once the shield of love disintegrates, the fear will increase and present its strong attacks. We do not want to allow fear's attacks to wound or devastate us; therefore, we must constantly strengthen our internal constitution."
(Srila Krishnapada, Spiritual Warrior IV, p. 55)
