We can categorize all our fears into five major categories:

  1. The first is fear of losing our wealth, our comfort, name and fame, prestige, and other outer world things.
  1. The second is the fear of losing our health and parts of our body through some accident or disease; the fears concerned with our physical health.

  1. The third is the fear of losing our mental health, our mental stability
  1. The fourth is the fear of losing our loved ones, or their love.

5. The fifth is the fear of the
unknown: fear of God, fear of
ghosts and fear of death itself

Actually, if you deeply analyze
our fears, all the five categories
of fear are related to the fear of
death. They manifest themselves
in different ways, that's all.
