Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
"Our post-modern generation....is trying to find its way again; that is the meaning of the 'return to religion' which so many have noted as the sign of our times....Western man has managed to lose his grasp of the meaning of life....In gaining-or in trying to gain-the world, he has come very close to losing his soul....Now we of this generation want to find our way back. But how? Where shall we turn?"
