Drops of Being by Catalin Manea

This book extends an open invitation to a profound journey—one of letting go, moving beyond personal viewpoints, and dissolving the self. It is not a journey of enhancement, but of surrender, without the promise of reward or meaning.

It explores the unsettling process of transcendence, a journey with no clear destination. The book presents the notion that true clarity leaves no trace, much like a drop of water in clear water. The experience of reading may leave a mark or none at all, depending on the reader’s attachment to their beliefs.

The excerpt serves as a metaphor for the journey itself. It suggests that discomfort may arise when one clings to their perspectives, but for those willing to let go, the book offers a path to deep clarity, free from interference or expectation.
