A book about intimacy and overcoming the defense mechanisms associated with it. For a loving and open relationship with a fellow human being.
Are we even capable of real intimacy in this day and age? Are we ready to reveal our deepest feelings and vulnerabilities to another person?
You want the other person to be intimate, to let go of their defense mechanisms, to become vulnerable, to open all their wounds, to drop all their masks and false personas, and to stand completely naked in front of you. On the other hand, everyone is afraid of intimacy – you want to be intimate with another person, but you don’t remove your defense mechanisms.
This is one of the conflicts between friends, between lovers: no one wants to let go of their defense mechanisms, and no one wants to completely bare and be completely honest, open – and both need intimacy. Until you forget all your inhibitions and the things you have repressed—the gifts of your religions, cultures, societies, parents, education—you cannot be intimate with anyone. You have to take the initiative yourself.
If you live a simple, natural life, you are not afraid of intimacy, but feel extreme joy when two flames come so close to each other that they almost become one, and such a meeting is incredibly satisfying, fulfilling and brings a lot of gratitude.
