Courage: The Joy Of Living Dangerously by Osho provides a distant view of the entire territory where fears arise, and how to understand the fears and also face them with courage.

Summary Of The Book

Osho, the author of Courage: The Joy Of Living Dangerously, tells that the lack of fear is not courage, but it is the complete presence of fear with the courage of facing it. He suggests that whenever a person encounters change and uncertainty in his or her life, there is a reason for celebration. Instead of sticking on to what is familiar and known, these situations and opportunities can be a source of enjoyment for an individual. In addition, the person can get a profound understanding about himself or herself and the surrounding world.

In the beginning of the book, the author explores the meaning of courage and how it is represented in the daily life of an individual. He focuses on how inner courage can be developed, which will further help in leading a life that is fulfilling and authentic on a daily basis. According to him, when there is a need to change, people should have the courage to do so, the courage to stand by the truth even if there is opposition from others, and the courage to face the unknown, though they fear about their relationships or careers. Several meditation techniques designed specifically by Osho for helping people in dealing with their fears are also featured in Courage: The Joy Of Living Dangerously.

This book garnered positive reviews, in general.
