Man's Search for Meaning is a book by Viktor Frankl that combines a memoir of his experiences in Nazi concentration camps with an introduction to his psychotherapeutic theory, logotherapy. The core message is that the primary human drive is the search for meaning, which can be found even in the midst of suffering. In this episode, I share the key ideas of Frankl based on a conversation published in another book called Embracing Hope.

This week I have got the theme of Meaning of Life for you. And we start with the same book called Meaning of Life. Presented by The School of Life this book is a practical guide that helps readers find meaning through areas like love, family, work, and nature. It suggests that meaning comes from a personal and ongoing process of defining and cultivating what is important, rather than a single, universal answer, and encourages the development of emotional intelligence to lead a more fulfilling life. About A Book A Day podcast: This podcast is hosted by author Deepak Rana, coming to you from the serene heights of the Himalayas.
