The Surprising Truth - Yourself as You've Never Seen it Before

Frank M. Wanderer, Ervin K. Kery

Summary

The “pressing” issues and events of our daily life occupy our attention so much that very often we forget about the miracle of our human essence, about the Miracle of Consciousness.
 
Our culture concentrates our attention almost exclusively on the forms and shapes, so wherever we look, we only see objects: a table and chairs in the room, then our attention sweeps across all the other items of furniture. At the same time we disregard the ”emptiness”, the space that makes it possible to forms and shapes to exist at all. Similarly, if we examine our mind, we only take notice of its contents–forms and shapes: bodily sensations, emotions and thoughts, but not the conscious space in which the forms and shapes appear. 
 
In our usual state of consciousness we stay submerged in the multitude of forms and shapes. In this state of consciousness we play the scenario of the film of our life. We look around and see objects that are desirable to us, we wish to possess them, and we also see objects that scare us and we want to stay away from those. We are carried away by the colourful, noisy and scented whirling of life, and we fully abandon ourselves in this whirlpool.  In this ”troubled,” mind-dominated state our identity is determined by the beliefs, thoughts, emotions and feelings whirling in us, everything we have learnt in the course of our life. That is how the Miracle of Consciousness has sunk into oblivion, and it is now covered with the grey veil of ordinariness. 
 
The Miracle of Consciousness remains there, shining in the background of the identities that are lost in the daily dreams of forms and shapes, in our vanished consciousness.

Transactional Analysis for...

Markus Bode

Do you sometimes feel like your messages are received differently than intended? Do you keep falling into the same communication traps at work or in your personal life? Do conversations often not go the way you hope? Then it's time to approach communication strategically – and this guide will show you how it works!
The idea that "you cannot not communicate" is now common knowledge – which makes it all the more important to communicate well. Misunderstandings are probably the number one cause of frustration, stress, and disappointment in daily life. The concept of transactional analysis provides an easy solution by focusing on analyzing and reflecting on lived experiences – meeting all participants exactly where they are in the conversation. Like financial transactions, the sender and receiver roles are examined, and the relevant components are clearly broken down.
You'll start by understanding the psychological concept and familiarizing yourself with the underlying theory. Then, through a variety of practical examples and exercises, you'll learn how to apply this knowledge in everyday life.
Need psychology expertise? Not at all! The clear and systematic explanations combined with easy step-by-step exercises make this book ideal for beginners and will quickly turn you into a master of communication.
