True Sense of System of Nature

True Sense of System of Nature is an anonymous publication of the eighteenth-century French movement of enlightenment. The authorship of this book is doubtful; some persons regard it as a work of Helvetius as this translator found one copy authored by Helvetius. True Sense of System of Nature raises its voice against the dominance of religion and royalty, the priests and the kings who used superstition and authority of religion and state power, giving people false hopes of happiness in the future life by keeping the bandage of opinion, tradition, and false beliefs to keep them under the yoke of priesthood and royalty. The unknown author of this book wants the people to be guided by reason and science so that they can work for their happiness, living and helping each other by contributing to the satisfaction of one anothers needs and not look for happiness in future illusory life as promised by religion. Man looks for happiness. He can only find it on this earth by working and living in harmony with the other members of the society.
