Living Soberly: a Life Journey Beyond Self

If I could only recommend one book in my life, I would choose "Living Soberly" without hesitation. It has transcended the scope of a book and has become a beacon in my life. Living Lucid didn't give me any quick happiness tricks, it gave me a new inner operating system. It allowed me to start learning how to be the master of my own life rather than a reactive puppet. The challenges in life remain the same, but my 'way of being' towards them has completely changed. " "This book is not for readers who are just looking for a moment of comfort. It is suitable for all souls who are truly curious about life, have the courage to look inward, and long for ultimate freedom. " "If you are ready, if you feel the call within you, then please open this book. It may not make you happier, but it will make you freer. In my opinion, freedom is the most important thing in life. "

This book has a profound understanding of the nature of internal friction and complements my previous cognitive viewpoints. Everyone lives in their own subconscious. Family, society, and environment have cultivated our behavior, character, and thoughts. Why I am doing the actions I am doing now and thinking the way I am thinking now is simply because I feel that repeating a habit can bring a sense of familiarity and control without spending extra spiritual energy on learning. If you don't want to change, then a person's upper limit will directly depend on the environment the person is in. If the environment is good and the people around him are excellent, then the person will not be bad. But if you are in a bad environment, you can only rely on yourself. Be aware of your own thoughts at all times, know which habits should be corrected, and whether it will help your future development. If you want to correct it, you must bravely face the pain of changing habits, the discomfort and even doubts about decision-making. If you don't want to correct yourself, it's okay. Live in poverty and be happy, let go of all unrealistic extravagant hopes. The emperor will have the sorrow of the emperor, and the poor will have the joy of the poor. If you are successful, you can help the world, if you are poor, you can be alone. If you have a breeze on your sleeves and have no worries, you are also very happy.

This book resonated with me very much, especially the author's mention of listening to your inner voice and finding your clear self. I have also been lost in busy work before. I just complete tasks mechanically every day without knowing what I really want. Just like the author said in the book, we need to transcend ourselves and pull out the thorns in our hearts in order to stimulate our inner energy. I think this book can not only give people a clear understanding of themselves, but also help us better face the challenges in life. However, I kind of hate the "inner roommate" in the book, who is always nagging in my ears and makes me feel very irritated. However, I also know that only by talking to it can I truly understand myself.

The author's views are consistent with "The Power of Now", especially the last two chapters are very enlightening. Death is the teacher. Death gives life meaning, so life appears precious and short. To live toward death, we must enjoy life, live in a state of presence, reduce the entanglement of thinking, and live a joyful, peaceful, and simple life. The author combines the philosophical wisdom of the East and the West. The Tao follows nature, is simple, follows the trend, and moderation means not going to extremes and maintaining the balance of yin and yang. Eliminate the discriminating mind and withdraw the spiritual energy from the resistance to reality. The mind should be born without dwelling. Surrender to the present moment with a mindset of infinite abundance and allow everything to happen, good or bad, it is an experience and a gift. To live a conscious life, what matters is not what you do, but how you do it. At every moment, let your awakened self-awareness flow through you to the world.

I love this book so much that I keep writing and writing about it to record it. It is like a key to a magical world, subverting your perspective on yourself and the world. People are not here to suffer. You can choose how to live. You always have the right to make your own choices. The biggest limitation is whether you can realize it. Life continues like this, but life changes little by little with my cognition. I hope that we can all broaden our cognitive paths in this book.

What if you could break free and transcend your boundaries? What do you need to do every day to find inner peace and freedom? This book provides simple yet profound answers to these questions.

This is the best spiritual book I have read so far! Before reading, read "Thinking Fast and Slow" and "Get Out of Your Head and Into Life". You will gain more!

I think it's more theoretical than practical. It was said that having abundant energy is your birthright, just like the sun shining equally on everyone. As long as you open your heart, nothing external can take away your energy.

A book that subverted my knowledge. I have never seen such vivid knowledge. It is a rare content that I enjoyed reading.

For someone like me who is very prone to internal friction, this book is really a good medicine, and it has deepened my understanding of spiritual growth or practice, and further promoted my determination to change my lifestyle!

Anyone who likes "The Power of Now" will probably like this book. This book gets right to that. Worth reading again and again. Already placed an order for the physical book

It's very interesting to watch. I recommend it to people who suffer from internal friction.

What the author said is very correct, and it also opened up another perspective for me to observe myself. I am just a bystander. Love is energy and a good medicine to heal yourself. Living is an experience, and the meaning of living is to experience every moment.

The power of the moment + the experiment of surrender + this book is simply the best combination to find the center of consciousness. I wish you all a speedy return and complete liberation.

When I let go, opportunities presented themselves. I'm so lucky to have come across this book.

I am me and you are just my body through which I experience this world! Meditation

This book made me understand that my thoughts are not myself, and my thinking is not myself. I used to think that my brain would deceive me, and I couldn't even fully trust myself. Now I know that it's not myself.

In-depth understanding can heal the soul. If you just read it hastily, you may not understand what it is saying. Only those who truly understand it will find the cure.

This book allows people to see themselves and understand themselves, in depth, but not boring.
