商品描述

The book offers a profound insight into the reasons why a great many people feel disconnected from the concept of death and, as a remedy, offers a series of pathways to reconcile them. As an inner abyss, the prospect of death reflects our deepest anxieties about the end of our life, its inevitability, and the mystery that surrounds it. However, this awareness also holds a contradictory promise: by accepting this shadow and exploring it, we might find a greater appreciation for life and a clearer vision of our true priorities. Central to personal development is the awareness that life and death are not mutually exclusive but inclusive states of mind. Death is an intrinsic feature of life. As this book will explore: at the interface of the two, we find a fertile ground for the emergence of psychological richness.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書深入探討了許多人為何感到與死亡的概念脫節的原因,並提供了一系列的途徑來幫助他們和解。死亡的前景如同一個內心的深淵,反映了我們對生命結束、其不可避免性以及圍繞著它的神秘感的最深層焦慮。然而,這種意識也帶來了一個矛盾的承諾:通過接受這個陰影並探索它,我們可能會對生命有更深的欣賞,並對我們真正的優先事項有更清晰的視野。個人發展的核心在於意識到生命與死亡並不是互相排斥的,而是包容的心態。死亡是生命的一個內在特徵。正如這本書將探討的:在兩者的交界處,我們發現了心理豐富性出現的肥沃土壤。
