THE MONK WHO SOLD HIS FERRARI BOOK: http://amzn.to/2FOSOQY BLINKIST BOOK SUMMARY APP: http://bit.ly/2nLC3iz In this book you will learn how to remedy some common problems that we often face in modern life, and how to live a happier, more rewarding and enlightened existence. The author give his advice through a fable about an enlightened ex-lawyer. So anyways, let's get into this story. So the main character in this fable, Julian Mantle a high power-lawyer has a spiritual awakening. He has it all, a baller ass job, ivy league degree, and prestige he was known as one of the most well-known trial lawyers in his country. He was rich, he had a huge ass house, and of course a red ferrari. But behind closed doors he was struggling, his workload was too much for him to handle. and it was so stressful on him that he had a heart attack in the middle of one of his court cases and collapses during the middle of a trial. After that, he never returned to practicing law. In fact he sold all his possessions and belongings and went to India in search of meaning. 3 years later he showed up at his former colleague's office a completely changed man. Mantle had been travelling from village to village in India by foot. He learned about yogis who seemed eternally young, and great sages. Eventually he travelled to the Himalayan mountains, where he came across the monks who lived there, it was there that he found his answer. These monks were known as the sages of Sivana. One monk in particular named Yogi Raman shared his wisdom with Mantle. They shared with him how to achieve greater vitality, how to become more creative and to feel more fulfilled. Yogi promised to teach him all that he knew on the one condition that he would return back to where he came from and spread the word. The 7 Principles of the Sivana System Yogi taught Julian these principles through another fable. The fable begins in gorgeous green garden, silent and serene, abloom with beautiful flowers. In the middle of the garden is an enormous red lighthouse. But the tranquility is suddenly disturbed by a sum wrestler who come striding out the lighthouse door. He is nine feet tall and 900 lbs, and he is wearing nothing but a pink wire cable to cover his modesty. While wandering out of the garden he stumbles upon a golden stopwatch. Out of curiosity, he puts it on--and immediately loses consciousness and crashes to the ground. Eventually he is woken up and filled with energy from the fragrance of yellow roses. He quickly gets up and looks to his left, where he sees a path covered with diamonds. Entranced, he walks along it. And this path leads him to everlasting bliss and joy. Everything in this fable represents one of the 7 principles of the sivana. The garden from Yogi Raman's fable represents the mind. A lot of people end up filling their minds with garbage. Negative thoughts, fears, jealousy. False beliefs about yourself and reality and the world, all of that. The way to do this is to train you mind to have the ability to choose what you think about. It's not that easy. It's actually a skill. You can learn to boost your focus and concentration through meditation called the heart of the rose. All you do is visualize the center of a rose, and really concentrate on it. Revel in its beauty, pay close attention to its colour and texture. At first you'll get monkey brain. Random thoughts. Like how big are elephant balls. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- E-BOOKS I'VE WRITTEN: My life in a book (Confessions of a Serial Slut: A Memoir) : http://bit.ly/1VizEaJ (18+) The Ultimate Guide To Being Single: http://bit.ly/1VizOyV ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Social Media links: GOOGLE PLUS: https://plus.google.com/u/1/+LyraScotch/posts SNAPCHAT: lyrascotchz I also have a health channel: http://bit.ly/1IzyZpN Business inquiries: lyrascotch@gmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUPPORT FOR MY CHANNEL: donation page: https://www.paypal.me/LyraDano t-shirts I designed: http://amzn.to/2GhzjRS |
