Furthermore, the New Mahāvibhāṣā asks: Between ordinary beings and noble ones, who has fear? Some say: Ordinary beings have fear (ordinary beings were formerly called pṛthagjana); noble ones have no fear. Why is that? Because noble ones have already abandoned the five fears. The five fears are: first, fear of [lacking] a livelihood; second, fear of ill repute; third, fear of assemblies; fourth, fear of death; fifth, fear of evil destinies.
