Topic Scope And Freshness
Key Notes
Jiang's theory is that souls arrive in this life with a purpose chosen before birth, and those whose purpose is learning or transcendence are often given hard circumstances so adversity can become a means of ascent.
He says the people who survive the greatest adversity are often the truly blessed ones because their hardship reflects both a noble purpose and the chance to transcend circumstance.
