Book Club Lineages 2026 – VIP List: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EcgFWKpgUnn... Professor Vitor Lima invites those who identify with the theme of solitude and self-knowledge to join the VIP waiting list for the Lineages 2026 book club. Those who join the list will receive a special participation offer when the club is launched. Why have so many people forgotten how to tolerate their own company? Starting from the experience of that frightening silence when finally alone, Professor Vitor Lima uses the life and thought of Arthur Schopenhauer to reflect on modern solitude, internal noise, escape from oneself, and the difficult art of inhabiting one's own body and mind. Throughout the class, Professor Vitor: Presents biographical aspects of Schopenhauer and his family and academic conflicts. Shows how solitude, for the philosopher, is both torment and opportunity. Explains why the mind has become a "room" crowded with other people's voices. Uses the metaphor of the "dirty mirror" to talk about stimuli, tiredness, and emptiness. Discusses the risks of confusing self-care with isolation and escapism. Introduces the idea of ​​the "practice of emptiness" as a relearning of one's own company.
