Description
The answer for the age old question on “Life and its Origin” is retreating far and far away as we advance in technology. It’s been more than a decade with completion of human genome sequencing but solving the mystery of consciousness still remains elusive. An understanding on Life is very important for each and everyone. Without understanding the element of Life fundamentally, it’s not possible to get answers to questions which we might try to solve ourselves throughout our life journey – Who am I? What is the purpose of Life?
Why am I existing? etc. Science provides us deeper knowledge about matter and its interactions, while Spirituality gives complete understating of self and its purpose. In this volume thoughts by various eminent thinkers on “Life, its origin and purpose” from both scientific and spiritual perspective, have been presented. This knowledge about life and its purpose is essential for entire humanity, to attain the highest perfection in life.
