Súmula - Dentro da Loja Mágica, Adaptado por Joana Stichini Vilela

by James R. Doty

Um neurocirurgião à descoberta  dos caminhos secretos para a alma.James Doty cresceu pobre, numa terreola no deserto da Califórnia. O pai era alcoólico e a mãe, com depressão crónica, tentara suicidar-se várias vezes. Certo dia, quando tinha doze anos, entrou numa velha loja de magia. Queria comprar um polegar de plástico, para ensaiar um número. A senhora por trás do balcão simpatizou com aquele miúdo franzino. E propôs-lhe ensinar-lhe a verdadeira magia. Não os truques de circo, mas sim a capacidade de olhar para dentro e perceber a linguagem do coração... O miúdo aceitou. Durante seis semanas, todos os dias, ia religiosamente bater-lhe à porta. E todos os dias aprendia uma nova lição. Estávamos em 1968. Pouco se falava de meditação ou mindfulness, pensamento positivo ou visualizações. Mas era essa a “magia” que o rapaz de 12 anos começou a aprender.Passadas três décadas, o Dr. James Doty era já um dos mais respeitados neurocirurgiões americanos. E rico, muito rico. Conseguira lá chegar cumprindo os ensinamentos da misteriosa “professora”. Mas, algures a meio do caminho, começou a negligenciar o poder da verdadeira “magia”. E pagou um preço elevado. A história de James Doty – hoje professor catedrático de Neurocirurgia na Universidade de Stanford – é absolutamente real. É a história de um homem que tudo teve e tudo perdeu. E que soube reencontrar o caminho recuperando a memória de infância e as lições inesquecíveis daquela mulher misteriosa, que nunca mais viria a encontrar.E ao recordar-nos a sua maravilhosa história de vida, o cirurgião oferece-nos por sua vez a lição mais importante que aprendeu: de nada vale um cérebro brilhante, se não soubermos sentir o coração.

If this had been subtitled "What meditation and positive thinking have done for my previously crappy life" I would have known to stay away from the book. I don't need 6-steps to relaxation, I don't need to still the voices in my head (no one else talks to me anyway), what I wanted was the author's experiences as a neurosurgeon.

The magic shop in question is a place that sells paraphenalia for magicians. The lady who keeps the store sees something special in this very poor and hungry child and teaches him how to meditate. I got bored after this and skimmed through his biography. There wasn't a lot of neuroscience and what there was was influenced by the author's Positive Thinking which had brought him skills and riches beyond compare. I'm very happy for him. He has a lot of talents, writing isn't one of them.

The power of positive thinking and mindfulness are nothing new, but this is the first time that I've heard of a child learning such things. Jim Doty had a pretty poor childhood both financially, and in terms of nurturing. There's no doubt that HE was the adult in his family - caring and worrying about his mother, father and brother, and then came that fateful day when he met Ruth. Ruth taught him all manner of what he saw as magical things, not only to help him cope with the life he'd been dealt, but also how to achieve the future that he wanted.
It's truly amazing that against all the odds, Jim became a neurosurgeon, but most of all Ruth's teachings helped him become the caring and compassionate human being he is today.

I've read this book because it was recommended by BTS and one of the songs on their new album is called "Magic Shop" and it's been hinted clearly that it's about the psychological process used in therapy where a patient and the psychiatrist play out a magic shop, the patient exchanging past traumatic and painful memories with happier ones. Basically, this is what this book has at its starting point.

It sounds... intriguing, but unfortunately, I never had any contact with psychology before and no real interest in it. I still read this book regardless. And guess what? I liked it! I think it was a really touching book, and it literally radiates positivity, mindfulness, self-confidence, self-expression and all that good validating stuff that we all are dimly aware we should work hard and gain to better ourselves, but we still need to hear the success story of someone else before making up our minds.

This book tells the story of our author from his childhood when one chance meeting made him realize how important it is to be mindful and empathetic (way before these terms became as popular as they are nowadays) and across his life, sharing all the lessons he experienced and the valuable knowledge we can understand from them.

Of course, the book has its faults: I generally discovered them in the pacing, but the writing style is very reader-friendly, so I didn't even mind in the end. There are lot of truisms that are actually very useful to incorporate in your own thinking processes and life, and it can literally influence your mentality SO MUCH!! Depending on how open and willing you are to open your heart.

I can totally see how the information in this book influenced BTS and their work, and all I have to say is: BTS are the fans' own magic shop: they are willing to listen to our painful stories, and then turn them into healing music. I'm really, really eternally grateful to be here, supporting a group who just cares so much about the world.

Feelings are not right or wrong. They are just feelings.

The heart is where we find our comfort and our safety in the darkest of places. It is what binds us together and what breaks when we are apart. The heart has its own kind of magic: love.

See everyone you meet as a flawed imperfect being just like you who has made mistakes, taken wrong turns, and at times has hurt others, yet who is struggling and deserves love.

Only later did I realize that many people will help if they are just asked.

Energy can be neither created nor destroyed. However, energy can change forms, and energy can flow from one place to another. That is the gift we are each given.

When our brain changes, we change. That is a truth proven by science. But an even greater truth is that when our heart changes, everything changes. And that change is not only in how we see the world but in how the world sees us. And in how the world responds to us.

We are born and we die, and everything that happens between the two can feel so random it defies logic. The only choice we have is in how we respond in each precious moment we are given.

The only way to truly change and transform your life for the better is by transforming and changing the lives of others.

4 stars! This was an enlightening read with a simple but powerful message.

There are two stand out words for me in this book: COMPASSION and KINDNESS. Among other things, this book explores the power these two simple words can have.

This is a memoir by Dr. Jim Doty, the director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE) at Stanford University, of which the Dalai Lama is a founding benefactor. He is also a clinical professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at Stanford University.

Dr. Doty has an interesting story to tell – his life is full of struggles and successes, challenges and accomplishments. As inspiring as his story is, I found my connection with him wavered throughout the book. I found his theories and beliefs were positive and encouraging but I had a disconnect with his personality more than a few times. This book won’t be for everyone, but it really touched me deeply at times.

I will provide some of the quotes that stood out for me and perhaps they will inspire you as well.

“Compassion and kindness, it turned out, was good for your health.”

“The extraordinary thing is that research is now finding that your act of kindness not only benefits those who receive your kindness but benefits you as well. The act of kindness ripples out and makes it more likely that your friends and those around you will be kinder. It is a social contagion that puts our society right.”

“I learned that by listening to my patients, just by giving them my time and attention and focus, they felt better. I let each of them tell his or her story, and then I acknowledged my patients’ struggles, their accomplishments, and their suffering. And in many cases, this relieved their pain more than any medication I could offer and at times even more than my surgery.”

“Giving love is always possible. Every smile at a stranger can be a gift.”

اول یه اعتراف نامه بنویسم 😁 فکر میکردم این کتاب از کتابهایی ه که بیخودی معروف شده و وقتی بخونم زیر بار نقدی سنگینی ببرمش . اما اصلا اینجوری نیست 👍

✔️ نشون میده که چقدر اراده تاثیر گذاره در زندگی و اگر ذهن چیزی رو بخواد فوق العاده کمک کننده ست در دستیابی به اون هدف .

✔️ چه شرح زیبایی از سختی های آیزاک نیوتون آورده (صفحه ۵۰) 👌 کاملا آموزنده و با ارزش .

✔️ کنترل خشم و احساسات رو به واسطه ی نفس عمیق و شل کردن عضلات و ریلکس شدن آموزش میده . خیلی سخته به نظرم !

✔️ نیمه ی اول کتاب رو پربارتر میدونم و به نظر همون نیمه ارزش یه کتاب کامل رو داره .

📖 بریده ای از کتاب :
هیچ زندگی بی نقصی وجود نداره که ما بتونیم در اون متولد بشیم و نمیشه از این واقعیت افتضاح که رنج کشیدن وجود داره، فرار کنیم. نمی تونیم از هماهنگی و تقارن زیبای قلب هم فرار کنیم.

📖 بریده ای دیگر از کتاب :
وقتی به گذشته نگاه میکنی ، به راحتی میتوانی قطعات پازل را در جای خود قرار دهی. اما سخت تر از آن اعتماد به قطعات پازل حین چیدمان اولیه آنهاست؛ اینکه به تکه های پازل اعتماد کنی که یک روز به هم متصل می شوند و در گذر از سخت ترین شرایط تصویری زیبا را شکل میدهند .

🗯 پ. ن : یه رمان که بیخودی بولد شده و افراد زیادی خوندنش ؟؟ نه اصلا اینجوری نیست .. یه رمان جذاب و زیبا که در حین خوانش اطلاعات خیلی خوب و مفیدی بهتون اضافه میکنه . هایلایت های خیلی زیادی ازش برداشتم و حتما مرور میکنم مطالب گلچین شده رو 👌

This was basically Tuesdays With Morrie with some neuroscience thrown in. Far too sensational. Far too exaggerated. Far too ...... everything. Was he really that insightful at such a young age? Is any of that even true? Was Ruth that insightful? I doubt it. This reads more like a morphed memory of how he became a neurosurgeon. If it were an historical fiction book, I am sure I would have enjoyed it. But, passing off this much sensation as fact, even if it has a lot of obvious truth to it, is extremely off-putting.

I love almost everything neuroscience, but this was not for me.

[Myrthe · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book wasn't like I expected it to be. I thought it would focus on the 'Neurosurgeon' part of the title, so I expected it to be a story about how we can discover the mysteries of the brain through academic research or something like that. However, it was a spiritual story and when I discovered that, I almost stopped reading. I am so glad that I didn't, though! Although I am not big on spirituality, this story was still extremely interesting and worth the time it takes to read it. It gave me lots of brain food and I can't stop thinking about it. I most certainly recommend it to everyone that loves spirituality or is open to it.

This book was introduced to me by BTS. And I so glad it did because it is a very inspirational one, making you think about your brain and heart and seeing every emotion from a medical perspective and through someone's point of view.
James' story is one very harsh, very strong and very interesting, seeing him trying to open his heart, soul and mind and recovering after losing his way.

تقریبا یک هفته ای میشه که تمومش کردم و هنوز و هر روز، به زندگی و شخصیت نویسنده این کتاب فکر می کنم. 

کتاب Into the Magic Shop در زمره کتاب های سلف هلپ هست و من همیشه به این کتاب ها بدبین بودم; اینکه شخصی بیاد و یه نسخه وسیع‌الطیف برای همه مشکلات بشر بنویسه، وَعده‌ای نیست که به وفا ختم بشه. به علاوه نویسنده های اینجور کتابا عموما از بالا به  مخاطب نگاه می کنن و با یه خودبزرگبینیِ اَندرو تِیت‌وار می خوان از موفقیت هایِ مقطعی خودشون  دلیلی موجه بتراشن برای ادعای رسالت.

داتی اما هرگز از بالا نگاه نمی کنه و متانت مستمری در طی داستان داره که به نظر من بهترین ویژگی Into the Magic Shop بود. در کنار این، داتی از زندگی و موفقیت های میلیارد دلاریش نمی گه تا ما رُ مجاب کنه به ثروتمند شدن و متعاقباً خوشبختی. نه، هدف داتی پولدارشو و خوشبخت باش نیست، بلکه بخشنده باش و آرامش کسب کنه. در قاموس ایشون که به شدت همتراز با بودیسم هم هست، دوست داشتن و عشق ورزیدن اولین قدم برای خوشبختیه و این دوست داشتن از خود ما شروع می شه. 

به شخصه از خوندن تمرینات و ایده‌هایی که کتاب برای بهتر زیستن ارائه می‌داد لذت بردم اما دلیل اصلی‌ای که کتابو ادامه دادم و اینقدر برام تاثیر گذار بود، همون زندگی بی اندازه پرفراز و نشیب دکتر داتی و لحن خاضعانه ایشون در روایت کتاب بود. 


ممنونم از دوست عزیزی که این کتابو برای پروژه این ماه بهم پیشنهاد کرد و کلی هم در خوندنش همراهیم کرد.

I received this book free for review from the author or publisher in exchange for an honest review. Despite the privilege of receiving a free book, I’m absolutely candid about it below because I believe authors and readers will benefit most from honest reviews rather than vacuous 5-star reviews.

The nutshell on this book is that it is, essentially, a self-help book. It doesn't start out that way but at the end of the day, it's quite a lot of fluff.

I was excited about this book for the entire first chapter. It starts out VERY grippingly. My thrall was complete. Then as the chapters dragged on, my enthusiasm drifted away like snow before the wind. Watch my YouTube video for the face-to-face description:

تعلمت الكثير من الأشياء.
الكتاب سيرة ذاتية لحياة الدكتور جيمس.. هذه الحياة التي انقسمت الى ثلاث مراحل : الطفل والفطرة، الطبيب الناجح الجشع ثم العودة الى الفطرة.
تعلمت اليوم وتأكدت عن حقيقة تناسيناها حقيقة افتقدتها اثناء تربصي في المستسشفى واثناء تواجدي مع الاطباء والجراحين وهي ان الطب عمل انساني قبل كل شيء! قبل أن يكون مصدر رزق ومكسب..وقبل علامة في ورقة لافيشاج!
الحمد لله اننا ولدنا مسلمين وتعلمنا بمرور الوقت التمسك بالاسلام من خلال معاني الصلاة بالنسبة لي.. نحن كمسلمين لا نحتاج للتأمل كما الطبيب في الرواية ما دمنا نصلي لو اننا صلينا كما يجب وبكل جوارحنا.
استحضر معاني الاية الكريمة بعد بسم الله (إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ خُلِقَ هَلُوعاً * إِذَا مَسَّهُ الشَّرُّ جَزُوعاً * وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ الْخَيْرُ مَنُوعاً * إِلَّا الْمُصَلِّينَ*)
كتاب لم أندم على قراءته، وأنصح به كل شخص سواء في مجال الطب او خارجه.

[Marc Kozak · Rating 1 out of 5]

Utter dreck. Basically the author patting himself on the back for 300 pages as he recounts the "story" of his poor childhood and subsequent transformation into a neurosurgeon and like, totally the sickest dude ever. I say "story" in quotation marks, because many major life events recounted are so suspect that I am confident in saying that they are either completely fabricated or there are large chasms of information left out to make things sound more "magical."

At one point, the author recalls his childhood growing up in a poor family. He is learning about the power of meditation and positive thinking at the time, and really wishes to not be poor. I mean, the poor lad just thinks it REALLY HARD. And then viola, the next day someone literally comes to the door with an envelope of money. This is presented as some kind of proof of "magic." I am not making this up.

Don't even get me started on the absolute BS story of his admission into college.

I dunno, I'm not into self-help books, and certainly not ones that spout greeting card philosophies about the world conspiring to give you what you want if you REALLY WANT it. To find out if you're the audience for this book, read the following paragraph of mind-blowing insight and see if it speaks to you:

"Everything you put on your list, everything you feel in your heart, everything you think about and imagine with your mind, if you truly believe, if you work hard, will happen. You have to see it and then you have to go after it. You can't just wait in your room. You actually have to go get good grades, and go to medical school, and learn how to be a doctor. But in some mysterious way you will also be drawing it to you, and you will become what you imagine. If you use your mind and your heart, it will happen. You have my word."

This is the exact kind of book I feared having to read after joining a book club.

[Angie McDonald · Rating 1 out of 5]

This dude is wildly narcissistic. He fabricates a simple and digestible story so that he can reframe meditation and mindfulness as his own unique idea to sell books to the masses. For being a neurosurgeon, there's little science in this book. His own selfish desires and egocentric lifestyle clearly caught up with him but only after losing millions of dollars did he begin to consider others. No amount of charitable work or artificial regret in the latter years of his life can cover up his self congratulatory nature or the fact that he still lives solely for himself.

James Doty never really set out to write this book, but he told his story to so many people with whom it resonated and being one of the founding creators of CCARE (The Center for Compassion and Altruism Research) he was eventually convinced how many more people could be inspired by his story and learn about the amazing work being undertaken, that he agreed to share his experience.

Doty came from a poor background, raised in a dsyfunctional family, his mother was frequently depressed and had suicidal tendencies, his father, who when he was sober Doty adored, often disappeared after one of his drinking bouts and when he did return was violent and abusive. Consequently, as a child he lived in a constant state of fear, of anticipation of when the next bad thing was going to happen, it made his heart race and his body tense.

The first major turning point in his life occurred in his early teens when he went to the local magic shop looking for a replacement thumb tip and there he met the mother of the owner, a woman named Ruth. Ruth recognised something in him and invited him to come to the shop every day, promising to teach him a kind of magic he could use all his life. So he did.

She talks to him about different feelings and the emotions they stem from and teaches him:
Trick 1. a relaxation technique,
Trick 2. to tame the mind
Trick 3. to open the Heart (the only one he didn't learn) and
Trick 4. to clarify Your Intent.

She teaches him to visualise and to never accept that something is not possible. He takes the lessons and they enable him to attain goals he believes would never have been achieved without the insights and practices that Ruth taught him. He goes to university, to medical school and despite absences and the lack of excellent grades, does achieve everything he was determined to achieve. But at a price, something he won't learn until many years later when he finally understands what the third lesson that he failed to learn and practice was about.

Ruth was helping me form new neural connections in my brain. It was my first experience with neuroplasticity, well before the term was commonly used....Not only was Ruth training me to change my brain by creating new neural circuits but she was also training me to regulate the tone of my vagus nerve and, by doing so, affect both my emotional state and my heart rate and blood pressure.

James Doty became a neurosurgeon and shares a little of what he learned about the brain and uses it to explain how those early interactions with Ruth were in fact changing and remapping his brain in a way that would really help him in the future.

In the future, in another turning point in his life, when he learns how much more he is capable of with an open heart, he will bring together a group of people to scientifically research the effect of compassion and altruism on the brain. As well as great scientific minds, he also meets with the Dalai Lama, who on listening to Doty explain his research and answering a number of questions, decides to support and sponsor the research with a significant financial donation, so impressed is he with the project.

When our brains and our hearts are working in collaboration - we are happier, we are healthier, and we automatically express love, kindness, and care for one another. I knew this intuitively, but I needed to validate it scientifically. This was the motivation to begin researching compassion and altruism. I wanted to understand the evolution of not only why we evolved such behaviour but also how it affects the brain and ultimately our health.

It is a wonderful, honest story, Doty shares his story, flaws and all, sharing the beneficial effect on his life of the rare gift of meeting someone who shared those simple life resources with him at an early age, and through this book hopes that many more will have access to them, or at least become interested enough to find out more.

مغازه ی جادویی هم تموم شد.
داستانش درمورد جیمز,پسر بچه ای با مشکلات خانوادگی مختلفه. تا اینکه یه روز یه مغازه پیدا می کنه که وسایل شعبده بازی می‌فروشه و وقتی وارد مغازه میشه با فردی به اسم روث اشنا میشه که سعی می کنه بهش جادو یاد بده.ولی این جادو, با هر جادوی دیگه ای که جیمز می‌شناسه فرق داره و باعث میشه که زندگی جیمز تغییر کنه.
کتابش از اون کتاباییه که خیلی راحت می تونید بخونیدش و موقع خوندنش متوجه نمیشین که زمان چطوری گذشت.
بحثش بیشتر درمورد موفقیت و خوشبختیه و اینکه چطوری میشه علاوه بر ذهن و مغزمون از نیروی قلبمون هم کمک بگیریم تا بتونیم به هرچیزی که دوست داریم برسیم.
پ.ن: من با کتاب هایی با این موضوع یه کم کنار نمیام و برای همین بهش سه ستاره میدم ولی اگه از این موضوع ها دوست دارین اتفاقا می تونه کتاب خوبی باشه.

این کتاب واقعیه ، واقعی.

دکتر جیمز دوتی از زندگی خودش گفته، اینکه چی شد خواست در آینده دکتر بشه و چه راه‌ها و اتفاقاتی برای رسیدن بهش طی کرد…
