"Fear shrinks your being, transforming you from a man into a mouse; true nonviolence is the courage to stand firm without hardening your heart."
According to Osho, fear—not the guns—shrinks your being, turning you from a man into a mouse. Guns kept for defense are practical in a violent world and need not harden the heart. True nonviolence refuses to allow violence against oneself. Replace fear with clear understanding so your heart remains courageous while your boundaries stay intact.
Don’t blame the guns; it’s your fear that makes your heart small—stay brave and use protection wisely.
