In this book the author speaks to readers who are asking whether
human life on earth indeed has any meaning; and if so, what that
meaning is, and how one could pursue a meaningful existence. For
those who would not waste their lives in aimless theories, the
present work will offer solid grounds on which to build a life that
is not only spiritually secure and physically productive, but also
intellectually enlightened: because its guiding principles are
rooted in the recognition of eternal law. As in his "Book on
Happiness, " the author states that lasting joy is not a gift of
chance awarded from without, but rather the creation of an active
soul, so too the reader's life is bound to have no meaning unless
such meaning is created by determined human will.
While there are many goals one can pursue to give one's life
subjective meaning, the author shows that none surpasses that of
which the ancient sages wrote as being mankind's "highest good" the
conscious rediscovery of our timeless spiritual nature, through
which not only our present life, but also our state in life beyond
will be affected most profoundly.
To help the reader recognize and reach that highest of all human
goals remains the foremost aim of all the author's writings. It
also is the purpose of the present work. And here he deals with, in
particular, the mystery of evil manifest in human nature; the need
to find a new approach to asking final questions; the dangers of
experimenting with "occult" phenomena; the difference between
subjective verities and absolute, objective Truth; and also of the
subtle ways in which the Spirit's world is often apprehended
unawares, and in the midst of ordinary daily life.
Of special interest should prove the chapter on the benefits of
silence, given that this discipline seems nowadays to many a
forgotten art. Stressing that our present life is but the
preparation for the life to come, whose state will be determined
largely by our conduct here and now, the book concludes with this
advice: "If you would lend abiding purpose to your life on earth,
be sure that everything you undertake is always done in such a way
that it will likewise further values of a higher kind. For, in the
end, your present life will have true meaning only if it continues
to be fruitful, and if its harvest shall be yours to reap for all
eternity."
