Project Description:

“不以物喜, 不以己悲, 念天地之空曠, 獨意念之寬慰.”
(范仲淹 – 岳陽樓記)

“Don’t be happy because of material; don’t be sad because of your emotion. Think about the endless space of the sky and the ground, only your widely mind can console yourself.”
(Fan Chun Yim – Ngor Yeung Lau Kei)

It had been a problem issue for human being to think about the meaning of life and how to tackle the issues and challenges during lifetime since ancient times. In modern times, our lives are faced with turbulent changing environment due to the globalization, technology advancement and conflicting of different social values.

Death is a big issue in life. Is death just confining to physical death? If people feel no meaning of life, hiding at home, stay away from people, feel lonely and spiritual emptiness, is it also close to death situation? Physical death includes the death of body and mind. People can still live when their mind are close to death. It is a serious issue in influencing the stability and development of our society and a fatal adverse effect to influence the life quality of people in modern times.
According to the information from Wikipedia, around 800,000 to a million people die by suicide every year, making it the 10th leading cause of death worldwide.
