About This Quote

Stampeders are things that move large amounts of dirt or other material. When you have your feet firmly on the ground, you have no problems on your mind. You cannot feel fear or doubt, because you are grounded in the present moment. However, when you are stampeding, you are running away from something.

This is not the same as being frightened, because there is some concrete thought running through your mind that is making you want to run. You are afraid of getting hit by a car or falling off a cliff or getting hurt. You are also afraid of losing money or not seeing the person again who has hurt you.

Fear and doubt are major stampeders; they can make people run away from their problems instead of facing them head on.
