Publisher Description
How can we free ourselves from mental suffering? How can we unlock what the poet William Blake referred to as “the mind-forged manacles” - those unhelpful, unfounded and inflexible habits of thought which keep us from reaching our true creative potential?
This book provides practical advice on how to achieve this.
But it also offers an imaginative holistic theoretical framework for an understanding of the nature of the universe, the psychological history of the human race and the meaning of life.

How to Be Free by Joe Blow
it’s time to stop projecting our beliefs onto others or assuming we know how they think and feel. Every individual is unique, shaped by their own experiences, not by outdated ideas from the past. Understanding that we can only truly know ourselves, and not others, is a lesson the world needs to embrace.

This was very relative. Very helpful and easy to listen too.
Personification of God
Author is against personification of God but after all the “theories” he is following he came to the conclusion that he accepts the idea of personification of God if we are considered god. What a helpless god that spent years to heal (and I believe that he failed) from his depression in most of the cases. He likes Jesus teaching but only if Jesus was referring to everyone as god not to Himself. Think about it, the man needs God that heals and free him but his ideas about Christianity and real God are not true and distorted. He described it as a system of rules which is simply not. He thinks that he found god!!! He is talking about us a part of a big eco system that develops itself by free flow of energy and information, but he just missed the major point about the creator of such a complicated system. And here he couldn’t claim that “we” are the creator of the system as he claimed that we are gods!!! So he just skipped this point. Same like every atheist! They claim that it is just an unanswered question but doesn’t mean or prove that there is God 😃!!
