Summary
In this episode of “inhabiting the world”, we are going to reflect and meditate on courage.Courage is one of the cardinal virtues, already identified by ancient Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle, as well as Roman thinkers like Cicero and Marcus Aurelius. Virtues are expressions of moral excellence and inner strength that shape and channelize the immaterial energy of the psyche.Of the four principal virtues, wisdom, justice, courage and temperance, courage is the most indispensable, the one without which the others could not be experienced; one can’t be wise, just and sober without been courageous. Courage is the manifestation of the strength that nourishes life and defeats fear.In the mountaineering expedition that moral and spiritual life can be compared to, courage is the base camp. The other virtues might climb higher, but they can only reach there thanks to the action of the heart that sustains them.Courage is indeed a matter of the heart, as the etymology of the word indicates, from the Latin “cor habeo” to have a heart. Courage is connected to the heart because its exercise produces a warmth in the chest that nourishes the élan vital, the impulse to live, fully.“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage,” said Anaïs Nin, everything depends upon the courage, or the action of the heart, with which we face the task of knowing, polishing and transforming ourselves.How do I relate with the word courage?When do I feel courageous?
