I AM GROWING IN MY SOUL A PERFECT COURAGE.
SECOND METHOD: THE ELIMINATION OF FEAR. This is the negative phase of our work. Specific instructions will be given having to do with every kind of fear. I shall endeavor to suggest practical help to all readers for each particular difficulty.
THIRD METHOD: THE CULTURE OF SPIRITUAL COURAGE. By the word "spiritual" I mean not merely religious in the ordinary sense, but rather that kind of courage which is just the breath and tone of the White Life manifest in the human life. The WHITE LIFE in you is harmony with the White Life which is The Good, The Beautiful, The True, The All-Health, The Father, The Infinite Soul of this wonderful Universe in which we live. If you come to harmony with the White Life, your fears will vanish because you will then share in the Courage of the Eternal Good.
There are two kinds of courage:
THE COURAGE THAT DARES AND WINS; and
THE COURAGE THAT SMILES AND RECEIVES.
"And shall I with a Giant strive,
And charge a Dragon on the field?"
In these lines we have the first kind of courage. It is good, but there is a type which is vastly superior:
I AM THE COURAGE OF THE SOUL HARMONIC WITH THE PERFECT WHOLE.
These lines indicate the second kind of courage—than which there is no higher. "Herein is love with us made perfect, that we may have boldness."
