As star wars says,"Fear is a path to the darkside!"

Yahweh, I appreciate the Star Wars quote on "path" as related to "fear." I recall Dune, the classic sci-fi extra-t world was also a great teaching on fear, and then The Matrix. Three profound films for a curriculum on fear/fearlessness. The teaching you quote above re: Yoda and "ways of the the Living Force" is one that resonates with many, like yourself. I agree we have fearlessness and we have to learn to recognize it; in my theorizing, I place fearlessness as mediator between the Living and Dying Force--the Light and the Dark Force, as another way of saying it. What is so useful about the path of fearlessness is that it avoids the binary of worshipping (falling prey to) the Good or the Evil, Light or the Dark, and so on...
