Lihan evankeliumi: Moraalin arvostelua
"Lihan evankeliumi: Moraalin arvostelua" by M. Hahl is a philosophical treatise exploring morality and the essence of life, written in the early 20th century. The work presents a critical examination of existing moral beliefs and societal norms, emphasizing a materialistic view of existence, the importance of individual purpose, and the potential for societal transformation through conscious evolution. At the start of this text, the author addresses the reader in a passionate exhortation to awaken from complacency regarding the current state of society and morality. Hahl articulates a vision of life that celebrates sensual and intellectual engagement, urging individuals to challenge oppressive societal structures. He proposes that the secret of life is found in organic existence rather than "dead" matter, arguing against traditionally accepted notions of purpose and morality as defined by religious or historic beliefs. The beginning serves to set the tone for a philosophical exploration that critiques the historical narratives surrounding morality, urging readers to seek a deeper understanding of their existence and purpose.
