Deep Paths of Mind and Soul

The guiding idea of this book was to connect and combine some of the main threads of universal wisdom and truths. They come from different cultures, as well as various fields of creativity such as music, cinema, painting or literature. That is why, as authors, we feel more like 'collectors' than explorers. At the same time, we can assure that the rules described in 'Deep Paths of Mind and Soul', work in our lives as well. EXCERPT FROM THE INTRODUCTION: 'It is precisely the roots that we have in common as humanity. Besides, within each culture, we can find similarities with our own; an underlying emotional code shared by all of us. Similar aspirations, similar connections, same intuitions, however, expressed uniquely, are characteristic of a given group.This book will deal primarily with a specific, instinctive grammar of life, the logic of good connections, manifested in our actions and psychological mechanisms.We will also look at nature, which shows both many 'permissible' irregularities, adding charm and individuality to phenomena, and evident anomalies, great turning points and simply warnings.However, our most important guide to the world will be the broadly understood sphere of human activity ‒ creativity, history, and language itself. We will ask what makes some phenomena optimal, almost classic, always working, and others inevitably misguiding.What is more, we will be able to see how much the language of music, film, or even the fairy tale, being very saturated itself, is translated into our everyday experience, and how it can help us in some challenging situations.
