"In this truly inspirational memoir, Anita Moorjani relates how, after fighting cancer for almost four years, her body--overwhelmed by the malignant cells spreading throughout her system--began shutting down. As her organs failed, she entered into an extraordinary near-death experience where she realized her inherent worth. and the actual cause of her disease. Upon regaining consciousness, Anita found that her condition had improved so rapidly that she was able to be released from the hospital within weeks. without a trace of cancer in her body! Within these pages, Anita recounts stories of her childhood in Hong Kong, her challenge to establish her career and find true love, as well as how she eventually ended up in that hospital bed where she defied allmedical knowledge. As part of a traditional Hindu family residing in a largely Chinese and British society, she had been pushed and pulled by cultural and religious customs since she had been a little girl. After years of struggling to forge her own pathwhile trying to meet everyone else's expectations, she had the realization, as a result of her epiphany on the other side, that she had the power to heal herself. and that there are miracles in the Universe that she had never even imagined. In Dying to Be Me, Anita freely shares all she has learned about illness, healing, fear, "being love," and the true magnificence of each and every human being! This is a book that definitely makes the case that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. and that we are all One!"--
Anita Moorjaniwas born in Singapore of Indian parents, moved to Hong Kong at the age of two, and has lived in Hong Kong most of her life. Because of her background and British education, she is multilingual and grew up speaking English, Cantonese, and an Indian dialect simultaneously; she later learned French at school. Anita had been working in the corporate world for many years before being diagnosed with cancer in April 2002. Her fascinating and moving near-death experience in early 2006 tremendously changed her perspective on life, and her work is now ingrained with the depths and insights she gained while in the other realm.
As a result of her near-death experience, Anita is often invited to speak at conferences and events around the globe to share her insights. She’s also a frequent guest at the University of Hong Kong’s department of behavioral sciences, speaking on topics such as dealing with terminal illness, facing death, and the psychology of spiritual beliefs. She is the embodiment of the truth that we all have the inner power and wisdom to overcome even life’s most adverse situations, as she’s the living proof of this possibility.
Anita currently lives in Hong Kong with her husband, and when she’s not traveling and speaking at conferences, she works as an intercultural consultant for multinational corporations based in the city.

人生一场梦,岁月流水中,几经辉煌事,都付黄粱中。 外人看来,韦恩的《再活一次,和人生温柔相拥》似乎讲述是一个传奇的故事,它存在的意义不是为了戏谑生和死,而是为了展示一个全新的世界,从生到死在重生,重新认知真实的自。 安妮塔在漫漫四年的时光里,与癌症相伴...
评分你以為你反抗的權威,是母親。你以為你反抗的權威,是領導。 但是,你反抗的都是自己想像的影子。在反抗的底層,是我們需要一個權威。無論是在家庭,在單位,在社會,在親密關係中,甚至,尤其是進入了身心靈的圈子,權威的影子仍然無處不在。 對我特別有幫助的,一個是阿納斯...
评分昨晚临睡前不经意点开书城里头的本周免费阅读,发现的这本书。还没有验证,到底是书的开篇,还是自己的梦境,那句“外面没有别人,只有自己”,刹那间对其重新释义了。三年多之前,看张德芬的找到自我系列,对于这句话,我的理解是:不要在乎他人的眼光,好好做自己,学着爱自己...
评分首先要感谢安妮塔穆贾尼如此慷慨地分享濒死体验!不是所有的人都能经历濒死体验,亦不是所有经历过濒死体验的人都愿意、能够写出来与他人分享。 《再活一次,和人生温柔相拥》作者安妮塔穆贾尼于2006年亲历死亡,经历濒死体验,其后,折磨她四年之久的癌症奇迹般地不治而愈。...
评分这本书的结构安排非常巧妙,它不是线性叙事,而是像一个复杂的拼图,将过去、现在和对未来的理解碎片化地呈现,然后在高潮部分完美契合。我尤其喜欢作者在描述她如何与身体“谈判”的那部分内容。那种将身体视为盟友而非敌人的视角转变,是许多身心健康书籍中常被提及但很少能写得如此真切的。她详细描述了日常生活中那些微小的、几乎难以察觉的习惯和思维模式,是如何累积成巨大的生命惯性。改变,原来是这样一点一滴、充满阻力的过程。这不是一夜之间的顿悟,而是无数次细微的、有意识的选择堆砌而成。对于任何正在经历慢性压力或感觉与自我脱节的人来说,这本书提供了一个非常现实的操作指南,尽管是以故事的形式呈现。它鼓励读者去倾听身体的低语,而不是只关注那些宏大的目标。
评分这本书的叙事节奏简直是教科书级别的!作者对心路历程的描绘,那种从深陷绝望到逐渐触碰到生命本质的转变,处理得极其细腻和真实。我能感受到那种被困在疾病阴影下时的窒息感,以及每一次微小进步带来的颤栗般的喜悦。更令人印象深刻的是,她并没有将康复过程描绘成一条直线,而是充满了反复、挣扎和自我怀疑,这让整个故事的张力持久不散。那种对自身局限性的深刻洞察,以及最终选择拥抱真实自我的勇气,让人在阅读过程中不断进行自我反思。它不像许多励志故事那样空泛地喊口号,而是通过具体的经历,展示了“如何”去面对一个看似无法逾越的鸿沟。特别是关于她如何重新定义“健康”和“成功”的那几章,读完后我合上了书本,坐在那里很久,感觉自己对生活中那些不重要的焦虑释怀了许多。文字的运用也很有感染力,时而如同清晨的薄雾般轻柔,时而又像手术刀般精准地切割开表象,直达核心的痛苦与觉醒。
评分坦白说,我原本对这类“战胜疾病”的主题持保留态度的,总觉得会充斥着太多美化和不切实际的乐观。然而,这本书的独特之处在于它对“濒死体验”的描绘达到了近乎哲学的深度。它不仅仅是在描述一次生理上的危机,更像是一次灵魂的剧烈重塑。作者没有回避那些最黑暗、最令人恐惧的时刻,反而将它们作为转化的契机。我特别欣赏她将科学认知与灵性探索并置的处理手法。她没有试图用玄学来取代医学,而是展现了当物质层面的努力达到极限时,内在世界的巨大潜力如何被激发出来。这种平衡感让这本书显得既脚踏实地,又极具启发性。阅读过程中,我多次停下来,思考自己过去生活中那些被我视为“理所当然”的事情,以及我究竟在追逐什么。这本书更像是一面镜子,折射出我们作为个体,在面对终极问题时的真实反应。
评分这是一本需要细细品味的著作,不适合囫囵吞枣。作者的叙事视角非常成熟,她不仅记录了她的苦难,更深刻地剖析了她从苦难中汲取的教训。她对于“疗愈”的定义是革命性的——它不是回到“生病前的状态”,而是进化到一个更高维度的存在状态。书中那些关于关系、关于放下控制欲的篇章,尤其具有普世价值。我们都在努力控制生活中的每一个变量,但她展示了真正的力量来自于接受不可控性。文字的密度很高,每一句话似乎都承载着多年的经验和沉淀。我发现自己经常需要放慢速度,回味某些句子,因为它们触及了人性中最深层的恐惧和最崇高的希望。这与其说是一本关于疾病的书,不如说是一部关于如何诚实地活下去的人性史诗。
评分这本书的语言风格充满了内省的张力,读起来有一种沉浸式的体验,仿佛你正和作者并肩走过那段艰难的旅程。有一种诗意的忧郁贯穿其中,但这种忧郁并非消极,而是对生命脆弱性的深刻尊重。最打动我的是她对“真相”的探求。在被诊断、被治疗、被告知该做什么的巨大外部压力下,她如何努力保护和发掘那个“真正的自我”的声音。这种对自主权的坚持,超越了病房的界限,延伸到了人生的方方面面。它让我们意识到,我们常常为了迎合外界的期待而“扮演”一个角色,而这种扮演最终会以各种形式反噬我们的健康。阅读完后,我感觉自己对“做自己”这个略显陈词滥调的短语有了全新的、更具重量感的理解。这不是关于自我陶醉,而是关于生存的必要性。
评分mind fucking blowing. here is the proof.
