Theologian and spiritual leader Miina Piiri has given her readers a mirror – in her 2022 book "I Confess, Therefore I Am," she calls on people to confront themselves and ask: who am I really?

The book centres on a journey of self-discovery that requires, according to the author, honesty about one's own narcissistic traits. "There is no way to answer these questions without understanding one's narcissism," Piiri believes, pointing out that self-awareness begins with uncomfortable truths.

One of the book's most striking ideas concerns the paradox of narcissism and death: the narcissist cannot die, because if they did, their entire world would be destroyed. This metaphor opens up a broader theme – how an egocentric worldview can both protect and imprison a person.

The work is intended primarily for those with a genuine desire to learn to know themselves – not for casual self-help readers, but for people who are willing to ask themselves difficult and sometimes uncomfortable questions. In the book, Miina Piiri combines both a theological and psychological perspective, creating a unique approach to self-analysis.
