The Musings of Great Minds

Born on March 14th, 1879, Albert Einstein, a genius with an IQ of 160, is best known for his theory of relativity. This brilliantly gifted man was one of the greatest and most influential physicists of all time. 

Like Adam, who was an engineer, Einstein also pondered and reflected on the meaning of life well beyond the realm of physics.

At the age of 13, he became seriously interested in philosophy and the arts, especially music. Einstein was introduced to Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Kant became his favorite philosopher, his tutor stating, "At the time he was still a child… yet Kant's works, incomprehensible to ordinary mortals, seemed to be clear to him."

Einstein's wife, a Serbian named Mileva Marić, became his soulmate and partner in all aspects of life, as were Tariana and Adam. Einstein was encouraged and sought his true purpose, saying, “Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.”

  In “Adam in Taoland”, with Tari by his side, Adam also became encouraged to explore his greater purpose of serving others. 

As we celebrate the birth date of Albert Einstein, let us all be encouraged to pause and ponder our greater purpose – and then commit to aim for new dreams.
