First would be the states of mind that is regulated by chemicals/hormones which are triggered from god knows how many types of transmitters. It could be from a way a person looks at you to the supposed effect T.V.'s, the "moon", and chemtrails perhaps have, and this could even get into hyperdimensional applications.

Danger, I believe is part of the natural balance of negative to positive. For example manipulative forces can balance the negative while divine intervention/awareness can produce counter-tilts to keep the pedestal balanced away from leaning toward the negative, and in which case 'danger' would occur that could be life-threatening if not injurous to the person walking too far from the yellow-brick-road.

Security is awareness of one's position. If he/she is ignorant towards their environment, the people around them, or whatever, what they are not aware of can have unpredictable consequences. Danger being an extreme. I don't think security is a superstition when it comes to day-to-day life, but perhaps it is when looking at ones life objectively. I think you are right about if one drives towards their goals/destiny, with passion, perseverence, dedication and discipline, one's reality is manifested by these actions and perhaps unstoppable from being derailed.

I have long considered that "security" is a state of mind.

This short statement does a great job of summing up why:

Helen Keller

Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.

Anyone care to comment on states of mind?

Warm regards
