Santiago learns to be in the present moment from "summary" of The Alchemist: A Graphic Novel by Paulo Coelho
Throughout his journey, Santiago gradually realizes the importance of living in the present moment. At the beginning of his adventure, he is consumed by thoughts of the future and is constantly worried about what lies ahead. However, as he encounters various challenges and experiences, he learns to focus on the here and now.
Santiago's time spent with the crystal merchant is a turning point in his understanding of the present moment. The merchant teaches him the valuable lesson of mindfulness by emphasizing the importance of being fully engaged in whatever task is at hand. This lesson resonates with Santiago and prompts him to shift his perspective on life.
As Santiago continues on his journey, he becomes more attuned to his surroundings and starts to appreciate the beauty of the present moment. Whether he is conversing with the Englishman about alchemy or gazing at the stars in the desert, Santiago learns to immerse himself fully in the present experience without being burdened by thoughts of the past or future.
The climax of Santiago's transformation occurs when he meets the alchemist in the Egyptian desert. Through their conversations and experiences together, the alchemist helps Santiago to realize the power of the present moment and the importance of listening to one's heart. Santiago learns to trust in the universe and embrace the uncertainty of the future while remaining grounded in the present.
By the end of his journey, Santiago has fully embraced the concept of being in the present moment. He no longer dwells on the past or worries about the future, but instead focuses on the beauty and opportunities that each moment brings. Santiago's newfound sense of mindfulness allows him to live a fulfilling and purposeful life, guided by the wisdom he has gained along his journey.
