Courage:
Courage is not blindly jumping into something in a state of ignorance or lack of awareness. Courage is not keeping on trusting that my desires are going to materialize or the ego is going to be protected.
Real courage is the ability to trust the universal flow of life while surrendering the outcome of a situation/ event. Courage frees us from the heaviness of ego and desires.Courage is adaptability and flexibility to move on with the flow of life. Courage is the ability to find an opportunity to evolve in whatever situation life places us.
The real freedom begins with courage.For a courageous person the thoughts, words and actions are always aligned. Courage is acceptance of what was, what is and what will be. Courage is the ability to live in the NOW with gratitude while giving our best ."Acceptance without the idea of acceptance" is called courage. Worry is inaction and energy draining whereas courage is taking the right action.
All my life I had prayed for protection and Master out of His generosity has always protected me. Suddenly there came a attitude shift.Instead of avoiding or resisting a situation should i not face it, go through it and learn from it.How kiddish it is to be stuck with my resistance or fear or lack of willingness to move on.Dependency on Master creates love in the early years of practice but at a later stage love is Responsibility. Self responsibility for self refinement leads to self mastery and this process demands courage.
