We all seek calm and inner peace. But how do you go about doing it? « Thinking Like a Monk » is not just another book about personal development. Deciding to refocus on yourself is one thing. Knowing how to do it is another. This is where the wisdom of monks is interesting, because it can be a path to take in order to give meaning to one’s life. It is this experience that Jay Shetty, the spiritual influencer with 30 million followers, knowingly shares with us, having lived it himself. His meeting with a monk during his university years will be the long-awaited trigger, this much sought-after inspiration which will allow him to find his new model of life. For three years, nothing more will matter than meditating and serving others. He felt the need to immerse himself. But you don’t have to shave your head and wear a saffron robe to think like a monk. Detoxifying your mind, aspiring to the wisdom of these guardians of an ancestral truth to achieve personal fulfillment, goes through different spiritual stages. Jay Shetty gives us the keys.
So, back to school, we arm ourselves with wisdom and positive thoughts by following the guide. Appeasement and serenity will undoubtedly be the end of the road to Thinking Like a Monk.
