The true concept of Immortality

                                 The true concept of Immortality



     Why did the ancient Greeks strive for immortality ?  Gods were the most important elements of Greek religion, and much emphasis was laid on pleasing the gods in order to live a life free of hardships , and sorrows. They also believed that they had to worship, and please gods in order to have a good fortune.

The gods were admired and feared, and were distinguished from man because of their Immortality. It is interesting to know what immortality means. It means living for ever which we have read, and heard from stories in ancient literature, and from classics from all over the world. The Greeks believed that when they excelled at something, be it sports, arts, or learning- they were making the best use of special gifts that the gods had given them, and by doing so, they would become closer to the gods, and close to becoming immortal. This is what the famous Greek philosopher Aristotle meant when he said, “ We must be immortal as far as we can .”
