Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 16
(b) A person is afraid, lest he should act against the will of parents, teachers and saints and against the ordinance of scriptures. In reality, this is no fear. This fear, leads to fearlessness. Actually this sort of fear, is desirable for a striver, because it leads him to spiritual progress.

Thus all the worldly things are full of fear, it is only dispassion which is free from fear (Bhartrharivairagyatarakam).
