What
puzzled
and
distracted
him
above
everything
was
that
the
majority
of
men
of
his
age
and
circle
had
,
like
him
,
exchanged
their
old
beliefs
for
the
same
new
convictions
,
and
yet
saw
nothing
to
lament
in
this
,
and
were
perfectly
satisfied
and
serene
.
So
that
,
apart
from
the
principal
question
,
Levin
was
tortured
by
other
questions
too
.
Were
these
people
sincere
?
he
asked
himself
,
or
were
they
playing
a
part
?
or
was
it
that
they
understood
the
answers
science
gave
to
these
problems
in
some
different
,
clearer
sense
than
he
did
?
And
he
assiduously
studied
both
these
men
s
opinions
and
the
books
which
treated
of
these
scientific
explanations
.
One
fact
he
had
found
out
since
these
questions
had
engrossed
his
mind
,
was
that
he
had
been
quite
wrong
in
supposing
from
the
recollections
of
the
circle
of
his
young
days
at
college
,
that
religion
had
outlived
its
day
,
and
that
it
was
now
practically
non
-
existent
.
All
the
people
nearest
to
him
who
were
good
in
their
lives
were
believers
.
The
old
prince
,
and
Lvov
,
whom
he
liked
so
much
,
and
Sergey
Ivanovitch
,
and
all
the
women
believed
,
and
his
wife
believed
as
simply
as
he
had
believed
in
his
earliest
childhood
,
and
ninety
-
nine
hundredths
of
the
Russian
people
,
all
the
working
people
for
whose
life
he
felt
the
deepest
respect
,
believed
.
Another
fact
of
which
he
became
convinced
,
after
reading
many
scientific
books
,
was
that
the
men
who
shared
his
views
had
no
other
construction
to
put
on
them
,
and
that
they
gave
no
explanation
of
the
questions
which
he
felt
he
could
not
live
without
answering
,
but
simply
ignored
their
existence
and
attempted
to
explain
other
questions
of
no
possible
interest
to
him
,
such
as
the
evolution
of
organisms
,
the
materialistic
theory
of
consciousness
,
and
so
forth
.

Moreover
,
during
his
wife
s
confinement
,
something
had
happened
that
seemed
extraordinary
to
him
.
He
,
an
unbeliever
,
had
fallen
into
praying
,
and
at
the
moment
he
prayed
,
he
believed
.
But
that
moment
had
passed
,
and
he
could
not
make
his
state
of
mind
at
that
moment
fit
into
the
rest
of
his
life
.
He
could
not
admit
that
at
that
moment
he
knew
the
truth
,
and
that
now
he
was
wrong
;
for
as
soon
as
he
began
thinking
calmly
about
it
,
it
all
fell
to
pieces
He
could
not
admit
that
he
was
mistaken
then
,
for
his
spiritual
condition
then
was
precious
to
him
,
and
to
admit
that
it
was
a
proof
of
weakness
would
have
been
to
desecrate
those
moments
.
He
was
miserably
divided
against
himself
,
and
strained
all
his
spiritual
forces
to
the
utmost
to
escape
from
this
condition
.
These
doubts
fretted
and
harassed
him
,
growing
weaker
or
stronger
from
time
to
time
,
but
never
leaving
him
.
He
read
and
thought
,
and
the
more
he
read
and
the
more
he
thought
,
the
further
he
felt
from
the
aim
he
was
pursuing
.

Of
late
in
Moscow
and
in
the
country
,
since
he
had
become
convinced
that
he
would
find
no
solution
in
the
materialists
,
he
had
read
and
re
-
read
thoroughly
Plato
,
Spinoza
,
Kant
,
Schelling
,
Hegel
,
and
Schopenhauer
,
the
philosophers
who
gave
a
non
-
materialistic
explanation
of
life
.
Their
ideas
seemed
to
him
fruitful
when
he
was
reading
or
was
himself
seeking
arguments
to
refute
other
theories
,
especially
those
of
the
materialists
;
but
as
soon
as
he
began
to
read
or
sought
for
himself
a
solution
of
problems
,
the
same
thing
always
happened
.
As
long
as
he
followed
the
fixed
definition
of
obscure
words
such
as
spirit
,
will
,
freedom
,
essence
,
purposely
letting
himself
go
into
the
snare
of
words
the
philosophers
set
for
him
,
he
seemed
to
comprehend
something
.
But
he
had
only
to
forget
the
artificial
train
of
reasoning
,
and
to
turn
from
life
itself
to
what
had
satisfied
him
while
thinking
in
accordance
with
the
fixed
definitions
,
and
all
this
artificial
edifice
fell
to
pieces
at
once
like
a
house
of
cards
,
and
it
became
clear
that
the
edifice
had
been
built
up
out
of
those
transposed
words
,
apart
from
anything
in
life
more
important
than
reason
.
At
one
time
,
reading
Schopenhauer
,
he
put
in
place
of
his
will
the
word
love
,
and
for
a
couple
of
days
this
new
philosophy
charmed
him
,
till
he
removed
a
little
away
from
it
.
