Be Still (Indonesian Edition)

Synopsis: People will be trapped in a shallow life style lest they are creative and adoptive in anticipating the impacts of change in the midst of globalization, development of information technology, and the increasing variety of consumer goods offered to mankind. The tendency and society's life style is continuously being pulled, and it falls into the trap of the homogeneity of pop culture. Humans are no longer as homo significant. Humans pursue secondary objects and other needs-not simply because of its function but for everyday life accessories. Doctor Bumbunan Sitorus -writer of this book- reminds that post-modernization humans should balance one's hustle and bustle life with the stillness that is crystal clear. Do not be trapped in an old mud so the mind is not conditioned with superficiality. Whatever one's status is, one will need stillness. Even the prophets went to caves and silent deserts while receiving revelation. Stillness is not a separation of one's self from the crowd. In stillness, we can gain the peace of soul, heart, and it affects the creativity, health, and spirit of life. (http://www.gramediainternational.com/book/detail/9789792722642)
