Tragedy of Modern Man
The sense that something is missing, a longing for something just
beyond our grasp, is a universal human experience. As
psychologists, philosophers, poets, and religious leaders have
expressed it - "a yearning that knows no satisfaction."
What is this yearning, and where does it come from?
This longing arises from the divine soul within us. Our soul seeks
completion and fulfillment, and we feed this burning desire of our
soul with endless materialism. With all of our success and
achievement, mankind remains disillusioned. He lacks peace,
happiness and fulfillment, and he doesn't know why.
Since we don't recognize and acknowledge the existence of a divine
soul and a divine plan which drives human behavior, our lives and
our potential are reduced by the limits of our perception. Our
thinking becomes finite and temporal, rather than infinite and
expansive. We lack vision, and we have no way to understand this
relentless force within us. This approach to life is, by
definition, flawed and limited. It lacks a comprehensive
understanding of mankind's most basic needs.
