Is meaning purely subjective—a matter of personal taste—or can anything be objectively meaningful? Why does it matter so deeply to our well-being, and what happens when it’s lost? Drawing on psychology, philosophy, information theory, and big history, this work excavates the origins of meaning from the deepest strata of existence. Beginning with the fundamental dynamics of energy and information, it traces how meaning emerges in the universe—from matter, to life, to mind, and into culture. Along the way, it explores the vital connections between meaning, viability, and flourishing, revealing an ongoing learning process woven into the fabric of cosmic evolution. With clarity and depth, this videobook situates human meaning within a much larger evolutionary story—one that stretches from the birth of the cosmos to the evolution of culture and the sacred. If you’ve ever wondered not just what is meaningful, but what meaning is, this is your invitation to explore.
