On January 4 Sunday news paper, Lee Kwan Yew daughter, Miss Lee wei lin wrote an article called "My house is shabby, but it is comfortable"
It was an article talking about people chasing after branded goods and how this behavior is unimportant to a person's life in the end. In one of the paragraphs, she mentions her beliefs about human soul and supernatural which tells us that she is atheist by and large as I do not know about her beliefs in the existence of god. Well, since she is also the director of National Neuroscience institute, I can understand why she has such beliefs though.
This is what she wrote in that paragraph.
"I am not a particularly spiritual person. I don't believe in the supernatural and i don't think I have a soul that survive my death. But as I view the crass materialism around me, I am reminded of what my mother once told me: "Suffering and deprivation is good for the soul".
