His thoughts taught me a lot myself and human nature. When describing all the things that distract us from willing to the Good, it made a lot of sense. I've been noticing people make the same excuses in their lives that he warned against. Great read. "...do you now live so that you are conscious of being an individual and thereby are conscious of your eternal responsibility before God? This is a great book for Christian self-examination, dedicated by the author and recommended by this reviewer to "that solitary individual" who desires to commit himself to One Thing and guard himself against double-mindedness, hypocrisy and mediocrity. Like Socrates, his role model, Kierkegaard excels, not so much in establishing the true religious or philosophical belief, as in distinguishing falsehood from truth, thereby prompting the reader to reflect and re-examine his own beliefs and practices. In his books, Kierkegaard not only gives an incisive diagnosis of the human condition, but also makes confessions about himself, his sufferings and struggles. Reading his books is almost like getting to know the author, even to the extent that the reader might feel an affinity for him. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Crossing the boundaries of philosophy, theology, psychology, and literature, the Danish writer Soren Kierkegaard is regarded as one of the most significant and influential figures in contemporary thought. In Kierkegaard's view, faith is the most essential task of life. Faith is not a matter of dogmatic adherence, but rather of subjective passion. In Purity of Heart, Kierkegaard discusses different aspects of living, particularly the responsibility of single-minded spiritual seeking and ethical integrity, offering clues to the nature of the good while insisting that each reader must work this out for themselves.
