Clues.............................


Philosophically minded people who stubbornly keep wrestling with the how-to-live question often end up dipping into the Holy Bible on the chance that they'll find a clue or two.  We also take the occasional plunge into the Koran, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, the Lotus Sutra, and, always fun on a mellow evening with good friends, the I Ching.  God knows, these sacred texts have satisfactorily answered the big questions for most people.
