The true face of this world:

One of the main reasons that lead people to become deeply attached to the life of this world is the illusion that it has no end. Forgetting that at any moment death can put an end to it, man simply imagines that he can enjoy bliss and happiness. However, he only deceives himself.

For this world is only a temporary dwelling place, specially created by God to put it to the test. This is why it is necessarily imperfect, not being designed to be able to satisfy the constantly growing desires of human beings. Any attractive aspect of this life is bound to fade away and disappear after experiencing decline and degradation. Such is the immutable reality of this life.

This book highlights the quintessence of existence and leads man to meditate on the real world to which he belongs, namely that of the Beyond.
