It also attempts to discuss the origin of different religious beliefs that grew since antiquity. It has explained how religions and philosophers have understood the purpose and meaning of life. Since the emergence of a thinking man i.e., Homo sapiens, they have been continuously showing their concern about lives here and here-after death. The ancient Romans, Greeks, and Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Chinese’ and Indians and adherents of old and new religions believed that after the spirit leaves the body, it moves on to another level of existence. All humans irrespective of their religious backg- round find themselves face to face with death as the single greatest mystery of their existence. Religion speaks of ethics and morals to be followed and it has never said anything against pursuing the quality life. There is no conflict between happiness earned through honest living in here and the one for the after-life. To attain eternal bliss, all credits through good deeds must be earned during one’s temporal life in this world.
