“Is there indeed another life awaiting me after the present one? Is there above a Supreme Judge who watches me, and to whom we are all to give an account of our doing here below? Are there rules or laws, according to which we are bidden to regulate our moral conduct? And does there exist some kind of sanction devised for the enforcement of these laws; that is, a system of rewards to their observers and of punishments to their transgressors in a life to come? Why am I here? Why did Almighty God bring me into existence? What is the purpose of my life here below? What am I to do in this world, and what shall be my irrevocable lot in the next?”
