<span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;">Courage is the total absence of fear in any form.</span><span style="background-color:#ffffff;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">True courage, in its deepest sense, is to be able to face everything, everything in life, from the smallest things to the greatest, from material things to things of the spirit, without a shudder, without physically ….without the heart beginning to beat faster, without the nerves trembling, without the slightest emotion in any part of the being. Face everything with a constant awareness of the Divine Presence, a total self-giving to the Divine, and the whole being unified in this will; then you can go forward in life and face anything whatever.</span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;"> </span><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">When the vital is entirely surrendered to the divine it is full of courage, enthusiasm.</span>

<span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;">Everyone possesses two opposite tendencies of character, in almost equal proportions, which are like the light and the shadow of the same thing. Thus, when one has fear, one also has courage. And to get over this impurity of fear one has the resources in the form of courage, tapas and surrender. </span>
