Do we truly understand the human being in its entirety? Unfortunately, we have been shaped by a society that has attempted to subdivide human complexity into layers: religion, science, philosophy, psychology, sexuality, and other divisions. While this fragmentation may have helped humanity in its early steps of understanding itself, it also created barriers and limits that prevent us from evolving, leaving a host of unresolved problems and unanswered questions.
Today, humanity is experiencing a moment of madness, where the only solution seems to be recognizing that this division never truly existed and that everything is intrinsically connected, with our spirituality at the center of all things.
For the author, one of the most damaging limitations of our time is the belief that we can understand the external world without first knowing ourselves. According to him: “It is impossible to know God (religion) without knowing oneself (psychology); and without self-knowledge, how can we understand others or the society we live in (philosophy)?”
Voilà proposes that true healing and self-knowledge require a complete integration of body, mind, and spirit.
The integration of sexuality and spirituality is one of the most revolutionary themes in Voilà, where sexuality is seen as a bridge to connect with the divine, directly challenging the view that the body and pleasure must be repressed. For the author, the notion of sin and guilt imposed by society and religious systems is not intended to protect but to control. By freeing oneself from these concepts, individuals can begin to live in alignment with their essence, integrating pleasure and spirituality as inseparable parts of their life experience.
In Voilà, conscious pleasure, lived with spirituality, is described as one of the deepest forms of self-knowledge and connection to something greater. This understanding allows individuals to embrace and celebrate their sexuality without carrying the shame or guilt that has been culturally ingrained. For the author, this is the key to fully exploring who we truly are, experiencing a life of freedom and authentic expression, where spirituality and sexuality walk hand in hand.
This book is an ideal read for parents, educators, psychologists, and anyone seeking a broad and integrated understanding of spirituality and sexuality, particularly in the LGBTQIAPN+ context. Voilà is one of the first books to address these themes so comprehensively, suggesting that the “masks” we wear — ego, desires, traumas — can be acknowledged and transcended so that we may live fully and authentically.
As a practical guide, Voilà helps readers explore their own essence. This is not a book that imposes absolute answers but one that offers a new perspective on achieving a balanced and conscious life, seeing the human being as a unified whole.
As the author states, true self-knowledge is an essential path to understanding and respecting others.
Voilà: a transformative work, an invitation for anyone who wishes to explore self-knowledge and discover a balanced, fulfilling life.
