Synopsis

A former monk who taught religion and philosophy in both high school and college settings reflects on life. The story he inherited told him who he is, why he is here, where he is going and how to live along the way. In questioning that story, he explores the quest for meaning in the world today that seems to be questioning traditional values and social structures that once supported individuals. His reflections suggest that we are in a transitional phase between stories based on an ancient worldview formed without the information we have about our world today and the beginning of a new story that seeks meaning in a scientific and technological world.
