Summary

Todos experimentamos momentos de plenitud vinculados a la expresión directa y auténtica de nosotros mismos: momentos de contemplación de la belleza del mundo en que nuestros sentidos se abren como si lo vieran por primera vez, de intimidad y comunión con otro ser humano, de fluidez creativa, de expresión confiada y libre… Estos momentos permiten intuir lo que puede ser una vida en la que no meramente se existe, sino en la que se vive en todo el sentido de esta palabra. Esta vida solo es posible cuando sabemos quiénes somos, cuando nos conocemos a nosotros mismos de modo experiencial: no cuando nos llenamos de ideas sobre nosotros, sino cuando nos asentamos en nuestro ser real, más allá de nuestras defensas, máscaras y falsos yoes. Este libro es una invitación a adentrarnos de forma práctica en el camino del autoconocimiento sapiencial y, más ampliamente, en la vida filosófica. Busca inspirar y acompañar en la apasionante aventura de desnudarnos, reconocer nuestra vulnerabilidad, para poder vernos y ser llenados. Solo esta desnudez lúcida da paso a una vida creativa y verdadera; una vida que no solo es una bendición para nosotros mismos, sino también para los demás y para el mundo.

We all experience moments of fulfillment linked to the direct and authentic expression of ourselves: moments of contemplation of the beauty of the world in which our senses open as if they were seeing it for the first time, of intimacy and communion with another human being, of creative fluidity, of confident and free expression... These moments allow us to intuit what a life can be like in which one does not merely exist, but in which one lives in the full sense of this word. This life is only possible when we know who we are, when we know ourselves experientially: not when we fill ourselves with ideas about ourselves, but when we settle into our real selves, beyond our defenses, masks, and false selves. This book is an invitation to enter in a practical way on the path of sapiential self-knowledge and, more broadly, on philosophical life. It seeks to inspire and accompany us in the exciting adventure of undressing ourselves, recognizing our vulnerability, to be able to see each other and be filled. Only this lucid nakedness gives way to a creative and true life; a life that is not only a blessing to ourselves, but also to others and to the world.
