Yet it is the ordinary, embodied experience of meaningful engagement with reality in which all these cultural activities are rooted. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHuman beings have to relate themselves to the entirety of their lives to achieve orientation. This relation involves a non-methodical, meaningful experience that exhibits the crucial features for understanding worldviews: it comprises cognition, volition, and emotion, is embodied, action-oriented, and expressive. From this starting-point, religious and secular worldviews articulate what is experienced as ultimately meaningful. Yet the plurality and one-sidedness of these life stances necessitates critical engagement for which philosophy provides indispensable means. In the end, some worldviews can be ruled out, but we are still left with a plurality of genuine options for orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45273914048663,"sku":"9783030214913","price":5509.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783030214913.webp?v=1769237978","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/science-humanism-and-religion-the-quest-for-orientation-9783030214913","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
