zh:生命的意义
The meaning of life constitutes a philosophical question concerning the purpose and significance of human existence. This concept can be expressed through a variety of related questions, such as Why are we here?, What's life all about? and What is the meaning of it all? It has been the subject of much philosophical, scientific, and theological speculation throughout history. There have been a large number of answers to these questions from many different cultural and ideological backgrounds. Albert Camus observed,
we humans are creatures who spend our lives trying to convince ourselves
that our existence is not absurd. [1]
- 生命的意义是一个解构人类存在的目的与意义的哲学问题。这个概念通过许多相关问题体现出来,例如:“我为何在此”“什么是生命?”“生命的真谛是什么?”。在历史长河中,它也是哲学,科学以及神学一直所思索的主题。前人在不同的文化环境与意识形态背景下也给出了很多的多元化答案。阿尔贝·加缪指出,作为一个存在的人,人类用生命的价值和意义来说服自己:人的存在不是荒诞的。
The meaning of life is deeply mixed with the philosophical and religious conceptions of existence, consciousness, and happiness, and touches on many other issues, such as symbolic meaning, ontology, value, purpose, ethics, good and evil, free will, conceptions of God, the existence of God, the soul and the afterlife. Scientific contributions are more indirect; by describing the empirical facts about the universe, science provides some context and sets parameters for conversations on related topics. An alternative, human-centric, and not a cosmic/religious approach is the question "What is the meaning of my life?" The value of the question pertaining to the purpose of life may be considered to be coincidal with the achievement of ultimate reality, if that is believed by one to exist.
