Now, to fully grasp the meaning of Signs' finale, we must turn to the work of Viktor Frankl.

要完全理解《天兆》的结局，我们必须求助于维克多·弗兰克的书。

I think few authors can relate to this as Viktor Frankl does.

我认为很少有作者像维克多•弗兰克尔那样对此感同身受。

Frankl begins by acknowledging that as far as science goes, we have not yet found an ultimate meaning to our existence.

弗兰克首先承认，就科学而言，我们还未找到我们存在的终极意义。

In his book Man's Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl argues that finding a meaning in life is our primary motivational force.

维克多·弗兰克尔在其《活出生命的意义》一书中指出，找寻生命的意义是我们的主要动力。

Although Viktor Frankl had plenty to live for, he did ask himself a similar question during his time in the concentration camps.

尽管维克多•弗兰克尔有许多让他要继续活着的东西，但他也在集中营里问过自己一个类似的问题。

While working at Rothschild, Frankl was also waiting to hear news that could lift him out of the terrifying situation that so many European Jews were in.

在罗斯柴尔德工作期间，弗兰克尔也在等待消息，希望能让他摆脱欧洲犹太人所处的可怕境地。

Because for Frankl, having the meaning of his life largely depending on the small chance of surviving the camp, was not a life worth living.

因为对于弗兰克尔来说，将生活的意义决定于集中营里的一线生机，这不是值得过的一生。

It's a final resort, but for Viktor Frankl, it's enough to show that although the meaning of life always changes, it never ceases to be.

尽管勇气是山穷水尽的最后一举，但对于维克多•弗兰克尔这已经足够展现：尽管生活的意义经常改变，但它不会消失。

But this, of course, would be to deny our true task, which, according to Viktor Frankl, is to take up our personal responsibility and decide for ourselves what our purpose is.

但这就否定了我们真正的任务，根据维克多·弗兰克尔的说法，那就是承担起个人责任并决定自己的目标。

Note that this is not an argument for the existence of ultimate meaning, Frankl merely explores its potentiality as a way of reminding us that not everything can be explained in definitive terms.

记住，这并不是说终极意义是存在的，弗兰克只是探索了其可能性，提醒我们：并非所有的事情都可以用明确的术语来解释。

Perls, Frankl, and others incorporated the existentialist perspective, understanding anxiety and limits to personal growth is driven by the human impulse to deny the fact that, let's face it, we're all going to die.

Perls、Frankl 和其他人结合了存在主义的观点，理解焦虑和个人成长的局限性是由人类否认事实的冲动所驱动的， 让我们面对现实吧， 我们都会死。

Last year they had twice as many traders transacting such things than they did in 2016. Ernst Frankl of Oliver Wyman estimates that gross profits they generated rose from $6bn to $30bn over that period.

去年，进行此类交易的交易者数量是 2016 年的两倍。奥纬咨询 (Oliver Wyman) 的恩斯特·弗兰克尔 (Ernst Frankl) 估计，在此期间，他们产生的毛利润从 60 亿美元增至 300 亿美元。

When Viktor Frankl talks about finding meaning in life, he isn't so much concerned with the meaning of life in general, but rather, the specific meaning of a person's life at a given moment.

当维克多•弗兰克尔讨论寻找生命的意义时，他不太担心整体生命的意义，而是一个人在特定时期的生活意义。

Furthermore, one consequence of our modern society is that the basic tension from survival is generally decreasing, leading to a growing number of people being trapped in what Viktor Frankl calls the existential vacuum; a feeling of meaninglessness.

另外，现代社会的一个后果就是生存的基本压力普遍降低，导致越来越多的人陷于维克多·弗兰克尔所谓的“存在空虚”之中，有着一切都毫无意义的感觉。

And indeed, for Viktor Frankl, this is also essential as he writes that; " The true meaning of life is to be discovered in the world rather than within man or his own psyche, as though it were a closed system."

维克多·弗兰克尔认为这同样是关键，他写道：“生命的真正意义存于世而非存于个人的精神世界，仿佛他自身是一个封闭系统。”

In 'Man's Search for Meaning', Viktor Frankl writes: I wish to stress that the true meaning of life is to be discovered in the world rather than within man or within his own psyche, as though it were a closed system.

在《人类寻找人生意义》一书中，作者 Viktor Frankl 写到：我想强调，人生的意义是要被发现的，而不是人类心理层面本来就有的，因为心理层面是个封闭的系统。
