The Imitation of Christ
When I let go of the world's recognition and praise, what remains in the deepest part of my soul?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Setting religion aside, this book is a perfect refuge for those seeking stillness within. Its power to draw the gaze inward, away from all that pulls us outward, is astonishing. The author urges us not to lean on empty knowledge or the opinions of others, but to humble ourselves utterly and seek truth in silence. I read it when I am worn out by the noise of a clamorous world and my heart feels hollow. Plain sentences, free of ornate rhetoric, gently enfold and heal the wounded self.
"Forsake vain glory. The praise of men is but a passing breeze, and true peace dwells only in the heart of the humble."Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ
"헛된 영광을 버려라. 세상의 칭찬은 한순간의 바람에 불과하며, 참된 평화는 오직 겸손한 자의 마음속에 있다."
