It that going too far, I wonder?
Or, "define"?
Failing that, "get at" or even "get near" aren't such bad options either.

attempt to unravel the mystery (essence) of life
The verb "unravel" may work here. You may take a step further to translate 本質 as "mystery" instead of "essence" to make it more dramatic.
Note from asker:
