Consciousness Science

Grandes líderes, pensadores, artistas, atletas e visionários têm uma característica em comum: a capacidade de alcançar a quietude. Cínicos às vezes a confundem com ociosidade e indecisão, mas a verdade é que a quietude é a chave para ter autodomínio, disciplina e foco. É impossível avançar na vida sem ela. A quietude ajuda as pessoas a controlar impulsos, evitar distrações e ter grandes ideias. Sobretudo, permite que encontrem a felicidade e façam a coisa certa.

Prosegue il viaggio nella dimensione che i Sufi dischiudono a se stessi e che imparano ad abitare, percorrendo un sentiero che si fonda su alcune comprensioni fondamentali: in primo luogo, il riconoscimento della propria ignoranza. Rendersene conto attiva, per contralto, la scintilla di intelligenza che permette di percepire ciò che è Reale. E dedicarsi alla verità è per un Sufi vivere appassionatamente, distaccandosi passo passo dalle idee stereotipate che condizionano il normale essere al mondo.

Una volta cadute dall'Iperuranio dove le aveva poste Platone e svestite del carattere di Verità, le idee sono entrate nella storia, hanno assunto un significato nella tradizione e nel tempo, sono diventate episodiche e discontinue, rinviano di continuo ad altro, non sono più una faccenda di puro intelletto, muovono le emozioni e svolgono un'azione seduttiva, sono oggetto del pregiudizio di ciascuno ma sono in grado anche di erodere, corrompere e modificare il pensiero tramite la loro comunicazione.

Modern thought tends to divide life into categories, but in the process of living, all the currents mix and mingle, and worthwhile answers only come from finding a harmonious relation to the whole. Seeking holistic understanding, this book ranges through psychology, art, science, religion, relationships, culture, mythology, philosophy, and the world’s wisdom traditions. Although no one can be expert in all these areas, the living of life does not offer the choice of avoiding any of them.

Een praktische gids met de ideeën van de beroemde filosoof Friedrich Nietzsche als leidraad voor een intenser en creatiever leven. Met Nietzsche aan de keukentafel leert je met andere ogen kijken naar jezelf en de wereld om je heen. Aan de hand van praktische vragen en oefeningen word je uitgedaagd je opvattingen kritisch te bevragen en eerlijk te kijken naar wat jij belangrijk vindt. Hoe blijf je jezelf in een groep? Hoe vind je je sterke kanten en valkuilen? En bovenal: hoe geef jij betekenis aan een in wezen doelloos bestaan? Friedrich Nietzsche omschreef zichzelf als een nihilist.
