The Way Back
Maslow's theory for categorizing and prioritizing human needs is considered one of the most important theories for anyone seeking to understand themselves and the world around them. The essence here is particularly about awareness, as everything in the universe and life operates according to a precise and strict system. As humans throughout history understood and deciphered some codes and equations of parts of this system, gaining knowledge and awareness of why things happen, their ability to predict (or extrapolate, to be more precise) future events improved. This, in turn, enhanced the human ability to control or at least adapt and deal with what would happen. This shift from being reactive to proactive contributed significantly to improving outcomes, human development, and civilizations. It's as if knowledge provides humans with perception and consciousness, acting as a control device that allows planning, managing, and dealing with events. Let's agree that reading the user manual (scientist's theory) from the perspective of the creator or the maker (God's words in the Holy Bible) gives us a more accurate and profound understanding. Therefore, in this book, we contemplate together and study Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory through the Holy Bible to achieve a better and more accurate understanding for the human needs and prioritizing them - what is and what should be.
