Publisher's Synopsis
True to his unique style, yet with a different focus, the author keeps delving deeper into the true motivations, the one's we do our best to hide - even from ourselves - to unlock the answer to why we find it so difficult, even close to impossible, to affect the change we say we claim to wish for. It's not about guilt, or anxiety, or depression. It's about clarity - seeing not the symptom, which we now confuse with the cause, but how we have come to see ourselves less through our own eyes, but those of the people who told us who we were. And we believed them.That's part of the answer. The other part, the one so few people speak about nowadays, is as old as us, yet because it's 'old, ' we dismiss it as irrelevant to what we naively call 'modern man.' And because we do, we've cast ourselves adrift.Clarity - the fact of seeing clearly, unobscured by extraneous factors and attempts at dissimulation. It's as close to reality as we can ever hope to get. And since that's the place where we live, doesn't it seem better to see things as they are and not how we wish they were. What could one possibly be so afraid of that it became a lifelong task to hide who we are from ourselves?
