The Individual’s Dilemma: the Bound Spirit Living as a bound spirit means being bound to a certain way of life, a certain way of valuing, because it is the dominant perspective.

We all want to live a good life; we want to do well and find fulfillment. The problem, however, is that we often don’t know what a good life is or what it looks like, let alone how to evaluate our own life and progress. Even if we do have an idea of what might make our life good, of what counts as a good life, it is easy to find ourselves doubting whether our own conception is right or whether it is right for us.
