Yogi: Big fear arises when seeing blood or great heights.
Sayadaw: How does big fear come? Big fear comes because you are not aware – because awareness, samadhi, and wisdom are not ready.
If awareness, samadhi, and wisdom are present, fear cannot overwhelm the whole mind.
Because delusion is there, therefore fear can arise strongly.
