First sentence: Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.
Description: This book explores one of humanity's oldest questions: What is the meaning of life? Why does life matter? Some see it as preparation for the next world, or to be part of the cycle of rebirths. But what matters for us is that life provides purpose and meaning in the here and now. Enlightenment comes from understanding the nature of the world and our lives as part of it. Chinese philosophy, for example, does not seek to discover the truth, but an understanding of the Way; not something one studies, but something one lives. This book seeks understanding.
