Descriere The Purpose of Life: An Essay | Nicholas Dima

The Purpose of Life is an essay emphasizing spiritual enlightenment as the ultimate purpose of our existence. Although attracted by the paranormal and accepting the immortality of the soul, the author wanted scientific reasoning! Consequently, he reviewed some of the most important works of the 20th Century on metaphysical philosophy and modern science and combined them with various precepts of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam. The conclusion that stands out from all these sources is that we humans are dual beings: as matter we are part of this universe and are mortal creatures, but as souls we belong to a spiritual world and are immortal. And the purpose of life is to reach a higher level of consciousness through spiritual enlightenment . . .
