Beyond the tip of my nose

This book tells the story of the author's quest to discover meaning and purpose that transcend physical reality. Perhaps surprisingly this pursuit for knowledge starts in early childhood, with the catalyst being a particular incident that - for the first time - exposed his unsuspecting mind to the stark realities of our temporal existence. What initially struck home with him was the apparent fleeting nature of beauty, which was a thought that jarred with everything he believed to be true and fair. Along this journey the author shares unique insights on a variety of seemingly unrelated subjects, including artificial intelligence, cosmology, depression, epistemology, as well as the human condition - particularly how this condition (as a phenomenon) finds expression through our senses of consciousness, justice, and freedom.
