“The way of the heart is the way of courage. It is to live in insecurity, it is to live in love, and trust; it is to move in the unknown. It is leaving the past and allowing the future to be. Courage is moving on dangerous paths. Life is dangerous, and only cowards can avoid the danger — but then they are already dead. A person who is alive, really alive, intensely alive, will always move into the unknown. There is danger there, but he will take the risk. The heart is always ready to take the risk; the heart is a gambler. The head is a businessman. The head always calculates — it is cunning. The heart is non-calculating…
Every person in the world wants to be authentic, because just being authentic gives so much joy and such abundance of bliss — why be phony? You should have the courage to look a little deeper: Why are you afraid? What can the world do to you? People can laugh at you; it will do them good — laughter is always a medicine, healthful. People can think you are crazy… just because they think you are crazy, you don’t become crazy.
Don’t listen to the scriptures — listen to your heart. That is the only scripture I recommend: listen very attentively, very consciously, and you will never be wrong. And listening to your heart you will never be divided. Listening to your heart you will start moving in the right direction, without ever thinking about what is right and what is wrong.”
— Osho, Courage: The Joy of Living Dangerously
If this is the answer you received from the ‘Games of Synchronicity,’ you already know — listen to your heart! That is where courage lies.
