Beschreibung
What if the self you've spent your whole life trying to perfect was never the point. You know the feeling of never quite being enough - of running one more discipline, one more self-improvement plan, one more version of yourself, hoping this will finally be the one that sticks. You are so tired of holding yourself together. Twelve hundred years ago, a Persian mystic named Bayazid Bastami spent thirty years chasing that exact same exhaustion - collecting teachers, starving his body, perfecting his own scrupulous conscience - before discovering, in a single dissolving moment of prayer, that the self he was trying so hard to fix was never the obstacle he thought it was. The Man Who Disappeared Into God. tells his scandalous, tender, true story: the boy who refused impure food before he was even born, the young man who stood a sleepless night holding a cup of water so as not to wake his mother, the wandering seeker cast out of his own hometown for ecstatic words that slipped from his mouth without his permission, and the old man who, dying, called his own name like a stranger he had finally, entirely become free of. Recognize the quiet voice in you that has always known there's a way to stop trying so hard Feel permission to stop fighting your own grief instead of demanding it resolve on schedule Watch a life's hardest failures - humiliation, collapse, exile - reveal themselves as the actual teaching Discover why the ground beneath you was never the thing holding you up in the first place>This is a book for anyone who has ever been quietly, privately exhausted by the effort of trying to become a better version of themselves. Some people spend a lifetime building a self worth loving. Bayazid Bastami spent his learning he could set it down. Open the first page. The rest will find you.
