Excellence Reporter: Prof. Halkias, what is the meaning of life?

Georgios T. Halkias: The search for meaning gives meaning to life.

It is not about finding “The Meaning,” but realising and cherishing each moment of conscious living, being here for oneself and others, and bringing to bear a message of light.

Life has meaning and meaning is life, how could it be otherwise?
