St. Teresa of Avila notes that the sometimes intentional and sometimes ignorant imposition of fear, blocks access and prevents people from practicing [[Connecion Technique]]s, like prayer."Cease, as I have said, to have fear where no fear is; if any one attempts to frighten you, point out the road40 to him in all humility."<ref>St. Teresa of Avila.

Tolstoy notes that fear of the unknown is a driver of disjuncture. He quotes Herzen, who refers to both fear and [[Disjuncture]]. Here, the pain of disjuncture is the motivation to overcome fear, pierce through [[Hypocristy]], and move towards [[Alignment]]: "If you are content with the old world, try to preserve it, it is very sick and cannot hold out much longer. But if you cannot bear to live in everlasting dissonance between your beliefs and your life, thinking one thing and doing another, get out of the mediaeval whited sepulchers, and face your fears. I know very well it is not easy.<Ref>Tolstoy, Leo. The Kingdom of God Is Within You (Classics To Go) EBook: Leo Tolstoy: Amazon.ca: Gateway. Translated by Constance Garnett.
