Tolstoy’s six "unknown questions"

 

1. Why am I living?

 

2. What is the cause for my existence and that of everyone else?

 

3. What purpose has my existence or any other?

 

4. What does the division which I feel within me into good and evil signify, and for what purpose is it there?

 

5. How must I live?

 

6. What is death—how can I save myself?
