Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A Psychological and Indian-Perspective Novel on Meaning, Existence, and the Value of Every Life. One Moment More is a deeply humane, psychologically rich novel that explores the meaning of life, the pursuit of purpose, and the worth of an individual's existence through the lens of Indian culture and modern psychological science. Written in the unique style of a reflective case-study rather than a traditional obituary, this book presents the journey of Krishnan Iyer-a quietly remarkable South Indian scholar-and, through his story, touches the universal need each person feels: "Does my life truly matter?" The book rejects both the cult of productivity and the pressure of self-actualization for its own sake, suggesting that true "success" comes in relationship, service, and presence. Mortality and Clarity: The awareness of death-the cornerstone of existential thought-serves as a clarifying force in the novel. The acceptance of life's finitude is shown not as cause for despair but as a reason to cherish every moment, prioritize what really matters, and approach each "ordinary" day as precious. Contribution and Other-Focus: The book subverts the Western myth of "finding the self" as an individualistic pursuit, advocating instead that authenticity and purpose emerge from meaningful contribution, relationships, and legacy. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
