Теперь-то всякий знает, как отыскать смысл жизни внутри...

Now everyone knows how to find the meaning of life within himself. But there was a time when humanity had not yet been honored with such happiness. Less than a hundred years ago, men and women were not yet able to easily understand the puzzles hidden in the depths of human souls. Cheap counterfeits - religions proliferated and flourished. Humanity, not knowing that the truth is hidden inside every living person, eternally sought an answer outside, eternally strived into the distance. In this eternal striving into the distance, humanity hoped to find out who in the end created everything that exists, and along the way - why he created it all. Humanity has always thrown its pioneer messengers as far as possible, to the ends of the earth. Finally, it launched them into outer space - into a distance devoid of color, taste and gravity, into infinity. It launched them like pebbles are thrown. These unfortunate pioneers found there what was abundant on Earth: a nightmare of nonsense that never ends. Here are three trophies that space has given us, infinity outside: unnecessary heroism, cheap comedy, senseless death. The world outside of us has finally lost its fictitious allure. The world within us is what was to be learned. Only the human soul remained terra incognita *. So the first sprouts of kindness and wisdom appeared. What were they like, people of ancient times, whose souls were still unknown? / * Unknown land (lat.) - Hereinafter approx. translator. / Here is the true story of those Nightmare Ages, which fall approximately (a year more, a year less) between the Second World War and the Third Great Crisis.
