Life is a perfectly everyday thing to us. We live our lives without knowing why. How little do people know about why they are here on earth, and about the mystery of life itself! Why do we live? What meaning do our lives have? Many people today are no longer satisfied by the answers to these questions that the major religions offer. Young people are looking for explanations, doubt whether their lives have any meaning; some of them slip away into the world of drugs, or are otherwise led astray. Thomas Kloevekorn has been concerned with these issues for more than four decades, and has now written a spiritual guidebook to share his experience with others. On the basis of his collaboration with the medium Walter Eckert he explains where the human race comes from and the reason for its existence.
