PURPOSE OF THE LIFE
PURPOSE OF THE LIFE
This existential question arises in almost every mind at some point of the life. Why do we exist? What's the real purpose of the life? Is there an absolute meaning in my existence? In some persons like Gautam Buddha this kind of questions stay in their minds seriously and for longer periods resulting in renunciationWhen I did a serious inquiry inside, I did not get a clear answer. Most of the answers were imported, I had picked up from some book or some person.
The famous Indian epical story of a boy named Nachiketa asking Yamraj, the god of death similar questions. Many more such incidences are described in the philosophical texts. This also is one of the givens of the life according to the existentialism.
We have come and we will go. So it is natural to get a question as who am I who has come and will go? Why have I come?
What is the meaning of my being? What is this thing called life?
Till now no one has ever been able to give 'ABSOLUTE ANSWER' to this existential query. But then the inquiry is very good and so are all the answers found upon. It is a play eternally played by all souls together, it is a journey towards liberation, moksha, self realisation, God realisation etc etc. All the answers will be subjectively perceived views because there is no one standard answer of this existential dilemma.
So what? Shall we ignore this inquiry? Or seriously delve into it and get the answer?
It is said that puzzle solving is good for mind. Since it is a powerful never solving puzzle, what is the harm in now and then involving in trying solving it. I promise you will refresh every time with some sweet answers.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL IN SOLVING THIS EXISTENTIAL ETERNAL PROBLEM
