Description
Naikan-Sen Look Inside! Book Description: In a small Aegean town, in the afternoon, a young man heads to the deep cliffs overlooking the sea, intending to throw himself down. People around him try to dissuade him, his acquaintances beg him, but to no avail. "Life has no meaning, I will throw myself down and put an end to this nonsense," he says. Finally, they call Osman Dede from the town, whom they think will respect the young man. Ummi Osman Dede; All he knows is farming; He has no special education. As soon as he arrived, he said, "Jump right away if you want!" he says to the young man. “But first, give those who have their rights their due!” He asks the surprised young man for one of his shoes. “Remember, who contributed to the shoes you walked in here? Who dug the path you walk for you before you? Which living creature's skin do you wear out under your feet? Can you calculate how many lives you have claimed so far while you were alive? At one point, he pulls the young man's shirt. “Don't you have anything to say before jumping to those who picked the cotton for this t-shirt, those who spun the cotton and wove it into a t-shirt for you?” “Wouldn't you consider thanking those who sowed and carefully baked the wheat of the bread you have eaten so far in the heat before you leave?” The transparent bonds shown by Osman Dede hold the young man so tightly that he returns to life from the abyss of his own will. And I say, you are not at the top of the cliff, but you are missing life on the high hills of comfort. You are killing life by living it. “I am enough for me!” Then, you rudely tear off the warm ties that embrace you and throw them into the abyss. If Osman Dede visits you this evening, do not tire him out, show him the Naikan in your hand. (From the Promotional Bulletin)
