In Search of Meaning

I've always been fascinated by Viktor Frankl's approach to life and the teachings of his book "Man's Search for Meaning." It has certainly influenced my thinking and my life in many levels. His recollection of the Holocaust and what helped him survive the concentration camps against insurmountable situations stays with you forever.

Frankl's Logotherapy Institute offers video clips of interviews in its Web site. I've chosen to share with you a clip of an interview where he describes his key concepts and explains how we strive to find life's meaning while coping with our tendency to seek pleasure and power.
