Jibaner Artha by Subrata Chattopadhyay [Hardcover]

What is the meaning of life? What is its purpose or goal? Wealth, status, youth—everything fades with time. In the end, what truly remains in life? Why have I come into this world?

There are some questions that, at some point, every thoughtful person contemplates. From the earliest recorded history of human civilization to the present day, countless scholars, intellectuals, and philosophers have pondered deeply over the meaning, purpose, and value of human life.

With advancements in health and medical science, modern life has gained a few extra years. But with longevity comes the burden of aging and illness, along with the undeniable fractures in family and social life. In solitude, existential questions—Why am I alive? What is the value of my life?—often become impossible to ignore, leading one to search for answers in various places.

No matter how the question of the meaning of life is framed, the answer is always personal. The journey of exploration is deeply individual. However, when this quest is enriched by diverse perspectives—through knowledge, science, religion, philosophy, and literature—it transforms into a mirror reflecting life’s truths and a treasury of profound insights.

The book The Meaning of Life is a soulful narrative that blends a seeker's sincere self-inquiry with the brilliance of knowledge and science, intertwining dreams, hopes, and aspirations into a deeply introspective and extraordinary account.
