The meaning of life

Last update: April 4, 2025 17:45 UTC

Foreword

The following ideas are inspired by the book “Mit Physik auf der Suche nach dem Sinn des Lebens” by Tim Vollert. It’s a book in German language, the title means “Searching for the meaning of life with physics”. The book gives an easy to understand of the beginning of our universe and how it will develop in the future until it comes to its end and an overview of the history of life on Earth. However, besides one small guess, the book did not show me any way which would lead to knowing the meaning of life. This inspired me to do my own speculations, based on that one small guess of the book’s author because in the end I am a human who does not believe in any God but is afraid of this individual death and try to find my personal consolation when facing death.

It’s a complicated topic for me, so I wrote the text in my mother tongue German. The English translation is on my to-do list, but I do not have a release date in mind yet.

Also, I publish this text as a PDF for it is too long for a one pager in the web as well as it is still a subject of constant change to get the text more accurate and for typo correction.
