Description

The Fundamental Ends of Life by Rufus M. Jones is a philosophical book that explores the purpose of human existence. Jones argues that there are three fundamental ends of life: the pursuit of truth, the pursuit of goodness, and the pursuit of beauty. He contends that these three ends are interconnected and essential to a fulfilling life. Throughout the book, Jones draws on various philosophical and religious traditions, including Christianity, Buddhism, and Taoism, to support his arguments. He also offers practical advice on how individuals can incorporate these ends into their daily lives. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on one of the fundamental ends of life. In the section on truth, Jones discusses the importance of intellectual curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge. In the section on goodness, he explores the role of ethics and morality in human life. And in the section on beauty, he examines the significance of aesthetic experiences and the appreciation of art. Overall, The Fundamental Ends of Life is a thought-provoking and insightful book that encourages readers to reflect on their own values and priorities. It is recommended for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, or personal growth.1925.
