Symposium September 9, 2017: The meaning of life
The fact that our society needs a clear vision of life is obvious. The multitude of often contradictory opinions and ideas that we are daily confronted with by the media, clearly shows that there is no generally accepted vision that can serve as a guiding principle for our lives.
That is why we will start the new season with an interactive symposium about meaningfulness and wisdom. These two concepts will not be treated as dry, theoretical doctrines. On the contrary, they will be presented as practical ideas. In all their simplicity, they must be able to inspire us to develop a philosophy of life that can serve as a compass for a meaningful life, both for ourselves and for our fellow human beings.
In the lectures and workshops we will investigate together whether this philosophy of life can indeed be recognized in life and what the practical consequences are. How does this philosophy of life, for example, changes our view on the issue of “a completed life”?
