The article introduces Viktor Frankl, an influential Austrian psychologist, highlighting his book Man's Search for Meaning (《我们为什么而活：找到自我存在的意义》). It explains that Frankl, a Holocaust survivor, developed Logotherapy, a therapeutic approach emphasizing the human search for meaning as the primary motivation for life, a concept he validated through his experiences in concentration camps. The source discusses how a lack of meaning can lead to societal issues like the "empty heart disease" prevalent in modern times, contrasting Frankl's views with reductionist theories that objectify humans. Finally, it explores Logotherapy's practical applications, such as paradoxical intention and dereflection, and offers a unique perspective on life, death, and the enduring nature of past experiences as a permanent record of our choices and actions.
