Even in moments of ecstatic joy, a quiet shadow falls across the soul with the knowledge that this moment, this youth, and these loved ones will pass away.
Exploring the Core Inquiry
- Human love does not want temporary companionship; it desires permanence and everlasting union.
- In nature, every fundamental natural thirst (water, oxygen, nourishment) corresponds to an existing reality.
- The universal, indelible human thirst for eternity is evidence that an eternal realm was prepared to satisfy it.
“Whoever listens to an awakened conscience will hear it say: forever, forever.” — Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, Risale-i Nur
