Osho Courage. The Joy of Living Dangerously

palēnām šīs bailes pazūd. Prieka pieredze, kuru sniedz nezināmais, dod tev pietiekami daudz spēka, piešķir tev zināmu personas veselumu, saasina tavu prātu. Pirmo reizi tu sāc sajust, ka dzīve ir ne tikai apnicīga, bet arī piedzīvojumu pilna. Tad lēni jo lēni bailes izgaist, tad tu vienmēr tiecies pēc piedzīvojumiem, meklē tos.

Bet savos pamatos drosme nozīmē riskēt ar zināmo nezināmā dēļ, ar pazīstamo – nepazīstamā dēļ, ar ērto – neērtā dēļ. Tas ir smags svētceļojums uz nezināmu galamērķi. Cilvēks nekad nezina, vai viņam tas izdosies, vai ne.

Osho "Courage. The Joy of Living Dangerously"

In this book, Osho talks about fear and courage. We cannot avoid fear, but we can get used to it. Every courageous person knows what fear is; they have it. It's there for everyone. Fear is natural. Only a few of us stop in front of it, but others move forward—into the unknown. Despite the fear.

To accept the challenge of the unknown, defying all fears—that is courage. Fear exists, but if you repeatedly accept the challenge, gradually, slowly, these fears disappear. The experience of joy that the unknown provides gives you enough strength, grants you a certain personal wholeness, sharpens your mind. For the first time, you begin to feel that life is not only boring but also full of adventure. Then slowly, slowly, fear fades away, and you always seek adventures, you look for them.

But at its core, courage means risking the known for the unknown, the familiar for the unfamiliar, the comfortable for the uncomfortable. It's a difficult pilgrimage to an unknown destination. A person never knows whether they will succeed or not.
