New in English! In this deeply philosophical yet practical book, Claus Janew presents a thought-provoking guide to navigating life's challenges with authenticity and self-awareness. Truthfulness delves into topics ranging from the meaning of truth itself to techniques for overcoming fear, transforming relationships, and manifesting goals. Janew proposes that truth-loving creation, or "truthfulness," is key to both personal development and shaping reality itself. He invites readers to question their assumptions, face their feelings, and take responsibility for their beliefs and intentions.
Through step-by-step practices, Truthfulness provides a framework for working through emotional blockages, building self-trust, and aligning with one's deepest values. Janew illuminates the link between honesty and respect in relationships, the pitfalls of deception, and the rewards of vulnerability. Significantly, he emphasizes individual freedom, arguing that attempting to control others sacrifices the authenticity needed for meaningful connection.
In the book's culminating chapters, Janew details his vision of "higher harmony"– a state beyond superficial happiness or temporary suffering. Here, self-realization, creative intention, and trust in a benevolent universe converge, imbuing even painful experiences with meaning and purpose.
"This book is like a box of good tools. You can put it in a corner and
take it out when you need it, but its true value is only revealed when you
use the tool. Then you will learn to realize unimaginable abilities and
creativity in your life and become a 'real person.'"
Kurt Folwill, Oldenburg, Germany
"The book 'Truthfulness' replaces the psychologist, is even better, at
least for me! No waiting time, quick to hand (practical format), no matter
when or where: short, effective advice and tips for any life circumstance
(fear, disappointment, blockages, finding your true self, etc.) to restore
your mental well-being. Those who want to know more about the why will
also find answers. As you delve deeper into the book, you can easily
immerse yourself in the author's interesting philosophy, written in an
easy-to-understand way."
