Archetypes of Human Existence

Out of the more than seven billion people who inhabit the earth, no two are exactly the same. Even tweens have differences. Every individual has been bestowed by nature unique attributes. And yet, the behavior of human beings can be reduced to a few archetypes. At the heart of the matter, each human being is one single entity comprised of a mind and a physical body, a mind that yearns for happiness, and a body that longs for sustenance. And it is the interplay of these two needs that creates the different archetypes of humans. This book explores a few of the archetypes. It discusses how the ideas around archetypes converge to offer a new perspective on fundamental questions that existentialists have been grappling with for ages.
