Review of In It Together
In It Together: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All by Eckhart Aurelius Hughes was an illuminating read. This self-improvement book dives deep into the common struggles that all humans share, emphasizing the importance of love, identity, and spiritual freedom. Hughes starts by delving into fundamental questions about human existence and the struggle between our true and false selves. He challenges readers to reflect on their lives and internal beliefs, ultimately guiding them towards self-discipline and happiness.
One of the most impactful parts of the book is the exploration of the concept of "Temporal Unity of Selves." Hughes emphasizes the importance of loving ourselves across time and appreciating our past, present, and future selves. He skillfully unravels layers of philosophical ideas, guiding readers through each chapter and taking them closer to understanding their true selves. This concept of self-love and self-awareness is fundamental to Hughes’ philosophy.
The book seamlessly transitions into a practical guide towards the end, offering well-structured and relatable suggestions for spiritual growth. Hughes’ practical advice is reinforced with insightful quotes from a diverse range of figures, adding depth and credibility to his arguments. The author uses clear and simple language, making the book easy to follow and deeply engaging as he provides readers with tangible steps to apply in their own spiritual journey.
One of the most impressive aspects of the book is how Hughes emphasizes that our shared struggles are more significant than our differences, creating a sense of unity. He also displays openness to different opinions, making his arguments more palatable and engaging. Each chapter can be read independently, highlighting the versatility of the book. These interconnected yet standalone chapters allow readers to dive into the book at any point and still find value, making it accessible for everyone.
I found no dislikable aspects of this book. It was exceptionally well-edited, with no errors, and the writing was exceptional. The inclusion of various viewpoints, from philosophers to religious figures, enriched the book, making it more inclusive. Hughes’ philosophy is profound yet accessible, leaving readers with thought-provoking truths that linger long after the book has been finished. His writing and ideas are impactful, leaving a lasting impression on the reader’s mind.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars for its meticulous storyline. In It Together is a powerful self-help book that offers valuable insights into achieving peace, self-love, and spiritual freedom. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in philosophical writing and self-improvement. It is suitable for adult readers of all ages, but it does contain passing references to self-harm and substance abuse, which may be triggering for some readers. Overall, this book is an exceptional read that leaves a lasting impression and offers a wealth of insights for personal growth and enlightenment.
