Religious studies

The following is a reaction to the material The Search for Meaning presented by Dr. Kang-nam Oh. I will be show positives and negatives about the material. I will also state my personal reactions throughout followed by a conclusion.

They are in people, people who live with us today and in people who lived before us.

In chapter four, Non-Attached Life dealing with the concept of reality is very moving. For some people their own way or view of reality is the only reality. These
