WAKE UP
Rudolf Dsouza
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
According to St. John of the Cross, “our awakening is an awakening of God and our rising is God’s rising. It is as though David were to say: Let us arise and be awakened twice, because we are doubly asleep and fallen. Since the soul was in a sleep from which it could never awaken itself, and only God could open its eyes and cause this awakening, it very appropriately calls this an awakening of God, saying: “You wake in my heart”. Awaken and enlighten us, my Lord, that we might know and love the blessings that you ever propose to us, and that we might understand that you have moved to bestow favors on us and have remembered us” (Flame IV.9). I have read many books that suggest ways to discover the goal of our life. All these could be classified as selfhelp books because they approach the subject from a self-centered viewpoint and suggest some possible remedies and prescribe some methods. Try to clarify our values and set some goals. Go for it! Be disciplined. Believe we can achieve our goals. Involve others. Never give up. Of course, these recommendations often lead to great success. But waking up to realities within and around us can be as powerful as disciplining or never giving up. You can usually succeed in reaching a goal if you put your mind to it. But being successful and fulfilling your life’s goals are not at all the same issue! This is what I mean telling myself and others who read this book: WAKE UP.
