In the book "Collective Amnesia", the author of this book began to emphasize the purpose of his writing, just like the " Who am I " he wrote, it is very short and suitable as a guide to help you compare your understanding of reality and understanding. Not only that, I believe that it will bring great help to any friend who is trauma, loss, despair, depression, and frustration. As long as you carefully study and understand the words and sentences of this book, you will find that the concepts brought by this book and the previous book are the best psychological treatment.
At the beginning, I was ready to read this book with the purpose of treating psychology, but I found that at the beginning of this book, I was a little confused when I read the brain of an ordinary person like me. During the previous reading, I was like a machine that reads words, and I was thorny and read it down, wondering whether my psychological treatment purpose could be achieved. But I also thought of the author's initial sentence, "As long as you carefully understand and understand the words and sentences of this book, you will find that the concepts brought by this book and the previous book are the best psychological treatment." So, I plan to finish reading this book seriously and carefully, and I believe the author will not lie to me.
The author said, "Talking about collective amnesia is actually to talk about the most original psychological state of human beings, hoping to establish a foundation of understanding... Just like I used the title of "The True Origin Doctor" to describe the most original concept of physical and mental health, and to express the state that each of us already knows and has. On the one hand, "Collective Amnesia" can be said to restore the 'true Original memory', that is, the 'the most original memory of human beings; on the other hand, it is to talk about 'human fall' and 'lost human heart'." When I read this passage, I suddenly thought that I should not read this book with such a strong purpose, but should read the author's series of books in order, so that I could continue reading it, read it thoroughly, and feel very stressed in an instant. However, the reading journey of this book has begun. I don’t have other books mentioned by the author for the time being, and I have a motto "Since I have started, I am not afraid of no results", so I once again decided to read this book with my heart.
During this period, I often have some strange thoughts and are very troubled. In the section "How do thoughts and language come from the stories and analysis told by the author, I roughly understand the reasons for the occurrence of thoughts before I can feel relieved.
In the section "Will life get better?", the author said, "If light is to be reflected back, there must be an object for reflection, such as a mirror. Therefore, awakening is at most only reflecting itself through our body and mind (just like a mirror). If there is no body and mind as reflector, there is no awakening... it is absolutely present in any relative. If it does not exist, it cannot be called absolute... It is not awakening through the mind, but to move the mind away to awaken." After reading this part, I vaguely understand what the author emphasized, "This world is just a big delusion, everything is just a projection of the mind."
I have read this book so far. Although I have a little different cognition from before, I feel that I am still outside the door in my understanding. I hope I will read this book with you later, communicate with each other, and achieve a deeper understanding.
