Question: What if a person finds a goal in life that constantly inspires him?

Answer: That is a different matter! Then he lives for this goal; it is what he exists for. But he must create; create means to bring something useful and new into the world.

Question: What do you mean by that?

Answer: Improving relationships between people is the most important thing. What else could there be?

Question: And then he feels that he is alive and can go on living indefinitely?

Answer: Yes. Because he truly brings something good and new into the world through that.

Question: Perhaps we will now find a cure for aging. And does this prolong his life?

Answer: It does not merely prolong his life; it makes him immortal. In other words, it places him above humanity, because he is constantly thinking about it.

Question: So he is above life?

Answer: Above life, of course.

Question: Is this what is called aging with dignity?

Answer: Yes. And everyone can do this.

Question: Does he age in the process, or not?

Answer: Physiologically, of course, he ages. But everything he does, his entire spirit, remains in people.
