Weekly Topic: Courage
As students, it is courage that opens us to learning and understanding through the exercises, self observation, self-remembering, transformation of suffering, payment, acceptance, gratitude, humility, love, and so many other experiences. With courage we are able to grow and be present to the conscious being within.
Undoubtedly, it takes courage to begin the walk and commitment on this path to awakening. Later it takes courage to drop the many habits of the lower self. Courage along with the guidance of conscious influence enables us to be.
Being present is the greatest use of courage in this life. — The Teacher
