The answer to the crucial question of life, according to the Buddhist philosophy.
As human beings, we have one thing in common: we search all our lives for lasting happiness. Why do we live? tells us that happiness can indeed be found. But it is not found in the place we ordinarily look, such as status, achievements, or family. This book, which has sold over one million copies since its original publication in Japan, shows us how to navigate life’s obstacles from a deep and abiding source of inner peace.

The authors, a Buddhist teacher (Kentetsu Takamori), a psychotherapist (Daiji Akehashi), a philosopher (Kentaro Ito), bring their combined wisdom to bear on the age-old question: what is the purpose of life? They direct us toward answers contained in often-overlooked Buddhist teachings, specifically, in the words of Shinran, who is the founder of Jodo Shinshu, the largest of Japan’s schools of Buddhism.

In clear and compelling language, Why do we live? shows why human life is not only meaningful, but infinitely precious. It considers the many ills that plague modern society (suicide, murder, angst, a constant sense of futility) and guides us to the enduring truths that can renew our hearts and finally provide real happiness.
