Dancing with the Devil at Night, Facing the Truth of the Heart

2026.02.18 | Thoughts and Review
Dancing with the devil. Krista K. Thomason. Song Ki-ryeong once said that meditation and mindfulness are also trends. As early as 2024. When I was in my 20s, self-help books based on meritocracy were all the rage. The message is that anyone can find enlightenment in life if they work hard enough to die, sleep less than others, and sacrifice themselves more diligently. I have quite a few books by author Lee Ji-sung on my bookshelf. Now many people know that's nonsense. The craze to cherish myself that appeared after that. These days, we are starting to discuss how to analyze, dissect, and deal with negative emotions, and how to do it in a way that helps me. This book is the next step. I would like to call it emotional existentialism. Negative and positive emotions are not objects or means that should be controlled or led in a good direction, but rather exist in their positions without reason or purpose, just like the result of evolution. This book says that everyone feels negative emotions and that people who only feel positive emotions are not normal. It recommends letting it go and feeling it, but says that moving it to evil actions is a separate matter. It cites the character Iago, who appears in the work Othello, as an example. A book that opens a new horizon in the trend of new philosophy and mind. This is a book I would like to read with those interested in mindfulness.
