Author Description

The nature of a human life in the material world that Sakyamuni Buddha clearly explicated in detail in The Four Noble Truths bears a resemblance to the nature of the "Copernican-Galilean-Newtonian Revolution" that the science claimed as the paradigm shift in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. As soon as we accept this body and live on this earth, we experience the gravitational force exerted by the earth and go through "birth, aging, sickness, and death" along with four others with absolutely no exceptions. Regardless of whether Buddha shared his personal experiences with us or not, regardless of whether Galileo Galilei advocated Heliocentrism or not, and regardless of whether Sir Isaac Newton confirmed the existence of gravitation or not, as long as we exist in this earth-that has always been and will always be rotating around the sun, we have no other choice. Finding Your True Self is a heartwarming, animated story of a young man who experienced indescribable wisdoms throughout his life. Introspective conversations and reflective analyses in this book are overwhelming far beyond the reach of most imaginations. Regardless of whether we are theists or atheists, rich or poor, experts or amateurs, aristocrats or commoners, celebrity or nobody, and white-collar workers or blue-collar workers, we can undoubtedly identify ourselves with him in one way or another. Irrespective of how sophisticated or controversial life-experiences we have, we can always find an unanticipated way to look at life from a new perspective. All in all, Finding Your True Self is the kind of book that helps lift our spirit and refine our critical thinking.
