Exploring the Core Inquiry
- If non-existence is the destination, every ticking second is an executioner bringing us closer to the abyss.
- When eternity is recognized as the true reality, time becomes a fertile field for cultivating virtues, love, and meaning.
- Fear of loss dissolves, allowing us to love generously, live courageously, and face death with profound tranquility.
