Question

What does courage mean now? Sarah Francis


Answer

Antoschka - Ekaterina Moshaeva: This is what I have told about in the previous answer. Courage means to raise your voice in a critical situation, to rise up, because every crisis is a renovation and a way up to a new level. A situation, or the nature, or the Creator brings people into a challenge to show them a new level of soul-understanding. And the most interesting fact is that I could name thousands of mentally strong people: Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Gandhi and so on, and their spirits could be reinforced just through obstacles. And they didn’t stop if they sometimes burned their fingers. If they did, it would be like if a little child burned his fingers on the oven and would never use fire again. Those people were not like a Russian fairy-tail character who burned a finger and when someone told him to spit on it, he spited in his hot soup. A human being can surmount many difficulties thanks to his strong mind. And this is courage. Courage means civil courage, when people raise their voices for peace, for their convictions despite personal disadvantages. It is wonderful. They call it heroism, and it has been praised since the beginning of the civilisation. This is the daringness of the braves. “We sing a song to the madness of daring!” [Maxim Gorky. Song of the Falcon] Such people are unique. They are “Human Beings” written with a capital letter, who have a full right to carry this name. They were crucified, put in prison but we still pronounce [their names] and realise [audio ends].
