About

The question "What is a good life?" is one of humanity's most enduring and complex inquiries, serving as a foundational question across philosophy, religion, and now, modern psychology.

There is no single, universally accepted answer, as the definition is often personal, cultural, and contextual. However, across various traditions, several core concepts consistently emerge, centered on virtue, happiness, meaning, and connection.

It's that time of year when we all make New Year's resolutions, so please join BRLSI for the Café Philo to discuss what it means to lead a good life.
