The Purpose of Life is a Life of Purpose

 

 

 The Purpose of Life is a Life of Purpose: Finding Meaning in Your Journey 

Being born, growing up, and dying are useless aspects of life. It has nothing to do with school, college, grades, a career, a job, making money, building a house, purchasing a car, going to the pub, getting married, having sex, having children, being wealthy, becoming older, and eventually dying. It is not about attending a church, mosque, temple, or leading a devout life while uttering the name of God. It is not about becoming a tyrant dictator or wonderful rulers who bring about social reforms. It has nothing to do with learning new things or being rich. It has nothing to do with charity, religion, or feeding the needy. Finding God and becoming one with him is not even a quest. 

When comprehended, life's profound meaning and purpose become incredibly intriguing. Many of us are ignorant of it, which is why we suffer in life rather than appreciating its beauty and purpose.  In order for our consciousness to improve, expand, and become more comprehensive, life offers a venue for experience gathering. This extension, evolution, or whatever you want to call it, continues indefinitely, going farther and farther beyond the human existence that we are accustomed to. Evolution is life's purpose. There is only one goal, and that is it. 

Consciousness is life. Individual consciousness is a unique awareness that each of us possesses. Our inner intelligences are the source of this consciousness. It makes us more conscious of who we are and where we are. It also provides us with a set of understandings, and we conduct our lives with these understandings. I feel as though my consciousness differs from yours. One person may have a wider (or more awake) state of awareness than another. As a result, although there are several levels of consciousness within the human kingdom, all of them fall into a small range. Though not the same, it is comparable. This is due to the fact that we have evolved differently as individuals (individual humans). There may be both youthful and ancient souls among us. 

Consciousness is likewise a continuum. I didn't jump into this world from nothingness when I was born, and I won't jump out of it when I pass away. Both the past and the future must exist. That may help to explain why some people are born wealthy while others are impoverished, why one person suffers and strives while another lives a happy life and commits all of his sins. This indicates that, despite the fact that many of us cannot recognize it, there is a cause-and-effect law. Life, the afterlife, and life again all fall into this continuity. Rebirth? Yes, you're correct. Rebirth is necessary for the existence of a continuum.

Is there a continuum among the various forms of life, such as plant, animal, and human life, if we can comprehend the continuous in human life? There must be a continuum, indeed. Compared to animals, humans are not exceptionally intelligent creatures that appear out of nowhere. The human kingdom must be preceded by something. It's the kingdom of animals. The animals are them. Additionally, although they have a totally different awareness, animals share consciousness with humans. There are various animal grades within the animal kingdom, and some are more intellectual than others. Therefore, the animal realm also exhibits a continuum, with less intelligent animals developing into more intelligent ones.

The bodies don't transform like a mouse turns into a wolf and then a dog. It is not Darwinian evolution; rather, it is a distinct type of evolution that occurs concurrently with Darwinian evolution, which is how the awareness that was once a mouse transforms into a wolf and eventually a dog. The animal kingdom also has a precedence. The kingdom of vegetables, or plants, is the one that underwent spiritual evolution to become animals and ultimately humans.

Do you see what's going on if you've followed along thus far? Originally a plant awareness, it has since developed into animal consciousness and, eventually, human consciousness. It has grown and changed. This extension of consciousness and this mutation have occurred as a result of some kind of change or growth. A static field will never change just because time has passed. Only when something has been gathered, learned, or acquired by the plant or animal consciousness as a result of existing as a plant or animal can it occur.

None of this knowledge is acquired in a single lifetime. Based on the lessons we have learned in each existence, it appears gradually across a number of lifetimes. We might not be able to intentionally link or connect these learning experiences that span multiple lifetimes; we will never retain them in our memory. The distilled knowledge or wisdom, however, is preserved by our soul, the immortal storehouse. This is represented in the instincts of animals. And in later life, we are a little better or wiser because we have this condensed wisdom. This keeps happening in successive lifetimes. Every time we get a bit smarter or better. Understanding changes, and as our understanding changes, so does our inner intelligence. 

You transcend the human realm and enter a greater kingdom of existence once your consciousness has reached a particular level or maturity threshold. Then, you are not limited by human constraints and have a much higher degree of freedom. Even so, the transformation keeps going.  You will quickly see the significance of life and its lofty goal if you comprehend all of this. At that point, you'll start to cherish and value life far more than you do now. You will find "good in everything, sermons on stones, books in the rushing brooks, and tongues in trees."

The majority of people are surface-level creatures who identify with their name, appearance, and belief in their personality. A person's personality is made up of their memories and practical knowledge that helps them get employment and maintain their financial stability. To overcome it, the human brain had to discover the laws of nature. Yes, but as logical beings, we became experts in the art of symbolic communication, or language, in the process. Words, concepts, and mental images of the world became crucial.

 

Introduction 

What gives life meaning? Is it wealth, success, or happiness? While these are important, the deeper truth is this: "The purpose of life is a life of purpose." Without a sense of direction, even the most comfortable life can feel empty.  Being persistent is a choice.  It's a promise to complete what you begin.  It appears to be a good idea to quit when we are worn out.  However, winners live on.  Consult a successful athlete.  Despite suffering, he completes the task at hand.  Many failures have had promising starts but ultimately come to nothing.  Purpose is the source of persistence.  A purposeless life is a drift.  Without a purpose, a person will never be able to endure or find fulfillment.

People perceive no opportunity when they lack direction and purpose.  Other things come easily to someone who has the will to succeed, the guidance to recognize his goal, the commitment to maintain concentration, and the discipline needed to put in the effort. However, it makes no difference what else you have if you don't have them.  Everything else is based on the foundation of character. It persists.

Although goals might last longer than five years, they eventually become the reason for living. Furthermore, it is crucial to have a purpose because without one, we risk developing tunnel vision, in which we become fixated on reaching our objectives. When goals are divided into smaller ones, they are easier to accomplish.

Without fulfillment, success is pointless. No matter how much wealth, status, or education a person possesses, life is meaningless and sad without a sense of purpose and meaning. Creating a personal success philosophy that addresses your values, family, society, finances, and health is the first step toward success. Life is dictated by dreams if you lack a well-defined purpose and a guiding philosophy. By default, people have defined a philosophy of failure if they haven't created a philosophy of success. We occasionally fail to notice things that should not be ignored and fail to notice things that should be ignored.

Desire can take many different forms.  a drive for achievement and the willingness to fulfill obligations even at the expense of enjoyment.  a desire for a purpose.  Something meaningful that is worth dying for  life.  If you lose your conscience and gain the entire world, what good is that?  A life without meaning is a living death.  What are you trying to accomplish?  Have you got one?  Passion is brought by purpose.  Discover or develop a cause, then work tirelessly and passionately toward it.  We must ask ourselves this question every day: "Am I moving any closer to my life's purpose?  Am I improving the quality of life here?

As Viktor Frankl said, "Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose."
