RT Book T1 The Quest for God and the Good: World Philosophy as a Living Experience A1 Lobel, Diana LA English PP New York PB Columbia University Press YR 2011 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1659011191 AB Diana Lobel engages readers in a journey of discovery across Eastern and Western philosophical and religious traditions to discover a beauty and purpose at the heart of reality that makes life worth living. Guided by the ideas of ancient thinkers and the insight of the philosophical historian Pierre Hadot, The Quest for God and the Good does not treat philosophy as an abstract, theoretical discipline, but as a living experience.For centuries, human beings have struggled to know why we are here, whether a higher being or dimension exists, and whether our existence is fundamentally good.
