Paperback. You have been a stranger to yourself your entire life. This book is the way home.Eight hundred years ago, in a mountain village in central Persia, a philosopher named Baba Afzal Kashani wrote a quietly revolutionary sentence: the self you are searching for is not lost. It was never lost. It has been here, watching, the whole time -- and it is larger than you ever imagined.Almost no one has heard of him. He worked in Persian, not Arabic, in a time when that was a radical act of democratization. He wrote philosophy as poetry and poetry as philosophy. He refused the courts of kings in favor of a village in the mountains. He spent his life on a single question -- Who are you, really? -- and arrived at an answer so precise, so intimate, and so startling that scholars who have encountered it eight centuries later describe the experience as reading a letter addressed personally to them.THE MIRROR THAT CONTAINS THE WORLD is the story of Kashani's life, his ideas, and his astonishing philosophy of the self -- told as it deserves to be told: as a book you cannot put down.Discover why the deepest philosophers of the medieval Islamic world considered the self not a philosophical problem but a doorway -- and what lies on the other sideUnderstand the radical act of turning inward: why honest self-knowledge is not comfortable, and why it is the only thing that finally satisfiesMeet the four-fold architecture of the human being -- the beast, the demon, the angel, and the genuinely human -- and recognize which one is speaking in you right nowFollow a thinker who refused the difference between philosophy and mysticism, between rigor and love, between what can be argued and what can only be livedFind, in the life of a man who died eight centuries ago, an answer to the question you have been carrying since you were old enough to ask itThis is a book for every person who has studied themselves and found they were still a stranger.

You have been a stranger to yourself your entire life. This book is the way home.
Eight hundred years ago, in a mountain village in central Persia, a philosopher named Baba Afzal Kashani wrote a quietly revolutionary sentence: the self you are searching for is not lost. It was never lost. It has been here, watching, the whole time -- and it is larger than you ever imagined.
Almost no one has heard of him. He worked in Persian, not Arabic, in a time when that was a radical act of democratization. He wrote philosophy as poetry and poetry as philosophy. He refused the courts of kings in favor of a village in the mountains. He spent his life on a single question -- Who are you, really? -- and arrived at an answer so precise, so intimate, and so startling that scholars who have encountered it eight centuries later describe the experience as reading a letter addressed personally to them.
THE MIRROR THAT CONTAINS THE WORLD is the story of Kashani's life, his ideas, and his astonishing philosophy of the self -- told as it deserves to be told: as a book you cannot put down.
- Discover why the deepest philosophers of the medieval Islamic world considered the self not a philosophical problem but a doorway -- and what lies on the other side
- Understand the radical act of turning inward: why honest self-knowledge is not comfortable, and why it is the only thing that finally satisfies
- Meet the four-fold architecture of the human being -- the beast, the demon, the angel, and the genuinely human -- and recognize which one is speaking in you right now
- Follow a thinker who refused the difference between philosophy and mysticism, between rigor and love, between what can be argued and what can only be lived
- Find, in the life of a man who died eight centuries ago, an answer to the question you have been carrying since you were old enough to ask it
This is a book for every person who has studied themselves and found they were still a stranger. For every reader who has tried every system and still felt the ache of something unnamed. For the mind that will not stop asking.
The mirror is already in your hands. You have been looking at the frame. This book will show you what is inside.

Derecho al desistimiento
Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a CitiRetail, Stevenage, United Kingdom, sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.

El derecho de desistimiento no se aplica a lo siguiente:
- La entrega de periódicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepción de los contratos de suscripción; y
