Reading “The Book”
The author says in the excellent chapter “So What?”:
“We are gulping down undigested experiences as fast as we can stuff them in – because awareness of our own existence is so superficial and so narrow that nothing seems to us more boring than simple being. Is it surprising that an existence so experienced seems so empty and bare that its hunger for an infinite future is insatiable?”

Even though I consider reading “The book” is kind of difficult and sometimes confusing, I’m enjoying it more and more every day!
