Where can we find a wellspring of inspiration to raise us from our doldrums, rekindle our enthusiasm about everyday events, and encourage us to explore untested possibilities? Maybe we can find it in familiar places: within ideas and examples of people we know that illuminate higher values to aspire to; among simple interests and pleasures that we take for granted and never fully recognize; and connected to unresolved problems that cry out for innovative solutions.

Why are each of us here? Is this our first and last time around? If not, what aspects of our true "selves" will follow present mortal experiences? Such fundamental questions have fascinated philosophers, theologians, and scientists over thousands of years. Cosmic Musings author Professor Larry Bell explores a literal universe of possibilities revealed through his provocatively thoughtful lifelong tour of diverse teachings and theories dating from Aristotle to leading contemporary thought leaders.
