The pilgrim - Tolstoy

About the novel Al-Nasak: The question that constantly troubled Tolstoy was: What is the purpose of human life? He began to search into human nature, and found that everything in the universe grows, develops, and seeks to achieve a universal goal that is not "hard work to provide all the qualifications that allow this comprehensive development to achieve its goal." Minds realize it only after a while, and he concluded that the purpose of life, then, is to be aware of it, and he was certain that this can only be achieved through absolute seriousness and strict discipline, as he said in a letter to someone living with honor and dignity, and who possesses strength, and fights all discouragements, so his friends: "A person must live knowing and every time he loses, he resumes the struggle again, convinced that resting in peace is nothing but baseness again, and it is baseness that begins with spiritual fall and decline." Tolstoy delved into religious readings, opposed the Orthodox Church in Russia, called for peace and non-exploitation, and opposed power and violence in all their forms. The church did not accept Tolstoy's opinions, which spread quickly, so they excommunicated him and distanced him from it. Many people admired his views, and they visited him at his residence after he lived a simple peasant life, leaving his wealthy, luxurious family.
