我從哪裡來? 我是誰? 我活著的目的是什麼? 這是每個人都曾經問過自己的問題，面對生命的問題，我們都充滿了好奇心，但卻都未曾認真負責的去思考這些問題。本課程將從自然科學的角度來探討生命的方程式，我們會從大爆炸開始談生命的起源，從考古人類學談人類的出現、演化及遷徙，一路探討到精子與卵子碰撞後生命的開始與展現。了解生命主體的建構後，我們進一步介紹人類為什會思考，你的意識是如何產生的? 這些人類的心智活動如建構一個獨特的自我。最後我們將帶領同學從人文科學的角度來反思與探索幾個人命中的問題，我們活著的目的是什麼? 什麼是有意義的生命? 本課程將結合自然科學與人文科學來引導學生思考生命的意義，其具體目標為：

Where do I come from? Who am I? What is the purpose of my life? This is a question that everyone has asked themselves. Facing the problems of life, we are all full of curiosity, but we have never thought about these questions seriously and responsibly. This course will explore the equation of life from the perspective of natural science. We will talk about the origin of life starting from the Big Bang, talk about the emergence, evolution and migration of humans from archaeological anthropology, all the way to the beginning and manifestation of life after the collision of sperm and egg. After understanding the construction of the subject of life, we further introduce why humans think and how does your consciousness arise? These human mental activities are like constructing a unique self. Finally, we will lead students to reflect on and explore several life issues from the perspective of humanities. What is the purpose of our lives? What is a meaningful life? This course will combine natural sciences and humanities to guide students to think about the meaning of life. Its specific goals are:
