Immortality
• Eternal life is the concept of living in a physical or spiritual form for an infinite length of time.
• What form an unending human life would take, or whether the soul exists and possesses immortality, has been a major
focus of religion and mythology.
• As we have seen, the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the first
literary works dating back to the 22nd century BCE, is primarily a quest of a hero seeking to become immortal.
