THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

2011-06-26T01:03:00.000-07:00

its interesting how so many of us are living and we dont know why this is happening to us. Why are we going through this life? a very difficult question to answer. Certainly what we all must have thought at some point in our lives.

I was young once. I started growing up. Started questioning things. But my biggest question remained unanswered. I kept struggling to find my purpose in life. I was just breathing and had a pulse like everyone else but never knew why.

I started searching. I still am. But i want to share what i know seems true me.

We are born into this life through a portal of blinding light. Our physical form is holding in itself a tiny fraction of something extrodinary and enormous. We are meant to go through this life to learn lessons.

As a child knows nothing about how the world works, our souls are naive and vulnerable. They are especially vulnerable to what our bodies do to them. As a child grows he becomes what the world turns him into, but the "instinct" the unexplained drive which always tells him whats right and whats wrong is what our souls are constantly reminding us. Because they are pure and beautiful and flawless creations. But our bodies are "worldly costumes" which have their own needs and desires. So as humans we are constantly living in this struggle between a pure existence being controlled and trapped in a materialistic body.

The purpose of this life is to listen to our soul. Keep our souls pure. The moment we start listening to our bodies and let them drive the show, our souls are changed, they get damaged and hurt. We become dissatisfied. And we are lost in life. And as our bodies grow older, our souls become distasteful, hurt and impure. And once we exit this body, our souls will create a world for us which will be suffering and torment for our existence..

As soon as we listen to out instincts, give time for our soul to speak, we become satisfied, content with ourselves and fearless.

We need to go through this life to learn lessons. Every step we take is an actual lesson to be learned and that lesson is to make or souls stronger and make our existence purposeful. When we go down this road, our souls flourish until a point where its time we transend from this human existence to a much better form of existence and we move on to the next stage of our existence.

The only way to feed our soul and make life worth living is to see the souls around you and help them get to the point where you want you soul to be. And the reason for that is that we are actually coming from a single source, a single and one truth. Helping another soul is in a way helping yourself. The moment we do this, we go a step forward towards greatness, we feel happy, we feel satisfied. Its like a drug for our soul and it gives you satisfaction which is a sign that what you did was worth it and you need to keep doing that. So our lives basically are a service. You serve for the different souls around you and in return you go high up the ladder towards the One. Once you reach the top of the ladder in this world, you are ready to lead a much better and great life in your next existence.

This service in this world connects you to that single Oneness that drives every single form, living, non-living and is the One that is gives you pure unconditional love, is the Most Merciful and is the only constant thing in any form of existence you will ever have, That immense power gave you life and everything around you and is there to protect you and you will always eventually go back to this Magnificient being. If you understand this then it makes life so much simpler because loving, being merciful, being compassionate to every living in this world makes sense because its a way you are connecting with the One. You see pure love and truth in everything around you and your soul makes you appreciate every second of this life.

A new Beginning

2010-06-24T15:29:00.001-07:00

The world was blurry, its sharpness no longer evident. She felt weightless; that comforting pull of gravity no longer holding her down. Her mind was a vast space engulfed in total darkness. Concentrate as she might she was incapable of recall. Suddenly she felt someone sucking the air out of her lungs .Her mind commanded her to reach for the shimmering light she saw above. Her arms and legs flung on their volition to reach for the only place different from the dark abyss around her. She broke through to the light; instinctively she gasped as warm air gushed into her lungs. Her body glowed as the sunlight fell onto the glistening drops on her body. She couldn’t recall what the drops were. She skimmed her hand across the ripples around her, awed at how the blushful bubbles waltzed with her touch. She raised her hands giggling at how her fingers interlocked so perfectly. And then she saw in the water a sight which barricaded the warm air from rushing into her lungs. It was a mirage of the most mesmerizing creature she had ever seen. Its hair, a fiery red, fell in disarray around its shoulder. Its skin was moist with beaded bubbles winking at her. Its lips were lush, like ruby berries, trembling with premonition. Its skin was alabaster with rose hue cheeks and her eyes were a dazzling azure which darkened to almost honey in order to erase their vulnerability when it realized it was also staring at a stranger. Reflexively she swung her hands to shove the creature away, only to find her hand splash some of the magnificent bubbles again. Perplexed she stared yet again at the image as the bubbles settled. She breathed in deeply forgetting she had held her breath and saw the stranger's chest heave as did her own. She touched her cheek and saw that the mirage did the same. How eerie she mused.
She swung around as she heard a twittering sound behind her. It was then that she saw the splendor of her surroundings. She saw the lush mossed trees which towered above this blue lagoon . The greenery was abud with life . She saw the most fascinating creatures shrouded in a multitude of colors fly across the sky; their whistles reverberating like a siren beckoning her. The strangest little creatures, with a color that matched her eyes, with four tiny limbs flew relentlessly through the air from one tree to another. She waded out of the pool leaving a terrain of drops on the dry earth. She kneeled down and scooped up the dirt in her hands. She inhaled its musky invigorating scent; its bitter taste stung her tongue. She walked up to a tree and saw a thick honey colored liquid oozing out of its bark. She saw the funny little rounded bunches hanging from a vine. She broke one off and squeezed it and giggled as purple liquid flowed onto her hand. She warily touched the tip of her tongue to the liquid; not wanting a bitter taste again. Instead she tasted the most tantalizing flavor, the sourness of which made her shiver. She felt smooth leather brush against her ankle and saw a long creature as it slithered across her toes its scaly skin a canvas of speckled greens. Its feel was leathery for the brief moment her hands contacted its skin. Right in front of her a miniscule creature, with what she figured were a thousand legs towards the sky, lay wriggling. It seemed to be in discomfort so she placed it onto her palm and watched in awe at how it its legs moved across her palm at such mindboggling speed. It tickled her palm giving rise to a giddy sensation in her stomach so she placed her hand across the ground as it wriggled off of her alien palm onto its familiar territory.
The wind carried with it a mirthful sound; sound of laughter like her own. She rose drawn towards the peculiar sound and entered the shrouded path beyond this haven. She continued walking her step as light as a feather beneath the vines which bent with apples. The barred clouds bloomed the soft dying day as she drew near to the tinkling laughter. Then from behind the mossy green shrubs she saw a similar creature she had seen in the pool of bubbles. There was a fume of poppies in the air, making her drowsy .The creatures hair, as dark as ebony, softly lifted as the wind whispered. It sat across the dewy grass humming a melody so very enchanting. It was using a contraption to squeeze the same round purple bunches she had seen earlier. She was mesmerized as she saw the purple liquid ooze slowly into a basket. Then she noticed she could see less of the creature's bare skin. It had the same mounds on its chest like she did. They were strange to touch, plush and soft and as she touched them she noticed the dark ends transforming into pointed nubbins. It was a strange sensation; the same giddiness welling up in her stomach again. Her head shot up as she saw the source of the tinkling laughter again. It was a tiny creature like her but with shorter hair. It was skipping about giggling speaking in a language she could not comprehend. It went next to the other creature and put its arms around it and both of them laughed heartily. She had never seen a site as such that made something within her chest plummet and hit the bottom. She was intrigued by the protectiveness the bigger creature showed and the mirth they shared that sank into every seed of this meadow. She wished to reveal herself but her primitive instincts guarded her every move. A primal fear enveloped her and she remained stationery. Her mind coaxed her to go forward; such joy could never harm her; but her body refused to obey. The brightness above was waning and darkness began to shroud the terrain. She watched as the two creatures receded from her vision as if being carried away by the winnowing wind. Her feet stayed rooted and she listened helplessly as the tinkling laughter of the tiny creature and the hypnotizing melody became replaced by the wailful choir of the mourning crickets and the monotonous droning of the black beetles...

euphoria

2009-04-28T09:52:00.000-07:00

life is a constant state of euphoria...a bliss in which you can get lost..and the only way to get out is to laugh...but this state of mind is not shared by many...what is it about life that makes us feel distant and at times different about it?....some of us alienate ourselves from life..its wonders..its unpredictability..its excitement..but why?...those people are not new in this world for sure..they have usually lived half of their lives...then why do they plan to get rid of their life?..what makes a person think, plan or even attempt murder on him/herself?...why does life become a problem they need to get rid of?..is it because they hate life?..themselves?..the world around them?..the people that live in it?...whatever the case is, they face all their fears and try to end everything...for a normal person its hard to think about death..any incident that causes a person to be in a life threatening situation shakes the core of our existence and makes us realize what life is about...but for someone who has made a concious decision to end whats left has no such feelings...not having a life is what excites them...will eventually end their misery..because life no longer has meaning for them...what these people need to realize is that life alhough short and unpredictable, it still can be changed with effort...that euphoria that we feel is a constant struggle between ourselves and our existence..we are fighting and trying to maintain our lives as good as we can because man was made to fight..and try..to suceed and live...because without life..there is nothing..just darkness...end

2009-01-24T15:22:00.000-08:00

LIONS

2009-01-01T11:24:00.000-08:00

the lion teaches its cubs as they grow , how to hunt…this teaching continues as they grow..every step of the way there is a new lesson to be taught…and the lioness is a master of killing…and most of them are…they want to pass it on to its cubs…this will make them independent confident and do what they were meant to do due to their chromosomal structure….and the cubs are eager in learning…they are involved and restless….they want to be strong….and better then each other…they struggle.. sometimes fail..but never stop believing in themselves…wanted to make there parents proud….and most of them do…every time they hunt with their mother…they observe…learn…and practice with each other….they soon learn the purpose of all the teaching and knowledge that they gained…and then they realize that hunger can be a very bad feeling….and survival means that you are able to provide….and be self sufficient….all along the way the cubs gain confidence…with age they gain wisdom..they can predict things..fear things that might be harmful…and try to avoid them…they become more focused in their goal and realize that now they are no longer cubs..but have basically turned into what their parents were…another breed of animals…trying to live…trying to survive and passing it on to their young ones….they don’t understand why their parents are getting old…why they are supposed to get old like them somewhere along the way….and why their own children will go through it like them?..they don’t question or complain….but just try to live their lives…..

2008-11-09T01:12:00.000-08:00

Nothing lasts forever..everything in this world is mortal…there is a time for everything to end..and that time is something we can only predict and never be certain about...and we don’t realize but everything in this world is moving towards ITS time!...we are moving towards an END…we can never go back in time…and as the clock is ticking, time is running out…We know one day our existence will become someones memory…and we all know that depending on how strong an impression we made to everyone around us will b the factor that will keep us alive in others memories....its amazing how our lives will be transformed into just, memories…and after a certain amount of time most of us will hardly be remembered…we block every thought that comes to our mind about the end…these thoughts come back to us only when we experience death around us…
Our lives are insignificant on a time scale from the beginning of time till the end…they seem significant and sometimes never ending only to us, while to someone who is observing us and can do that from the beginning till the end would think of our lives as nothing more than a split second or even less…..we can even get a feeling of this when we consider our age and realize that how did we get that old? And where did the time go?

KNOWLEDGE

2008-11-06T23:15:00.000-08:00

There is so much detail in this world that we tend to ignore..so many little things around us..so many things happening all around us..but we only see what we want to see…we disregard whatever we want to and focus on whats important to us…we only seem to see or hear what we want to….what if we paid a little more attention to the world around us?...what if we were not that ignorant and gave other things a chance to be a part of our memories…?....what if we paid attention to little details?...is that’s what living is all about?..paying attention to whats happening around us?...we probably need to be influenced by those things to make our lives more meaning full or worth living….but what are we capable of when it comes to details?...our defence mechanisms try to defend our brain from overloading with information and capture what we seem to think is important and leave the rest….then what is knowledge?...how do u define its boundaries?....does knowing a lot of information knowledgeable or only whats important to others and to yourself??...how do you define the boundaries for knowledge??...how do you judge knowledge of a person about the world and its ways?..about the life and its mysteries?...

PERFECTION

2008-11-05T11:56:00.000-08:00

out of all the things in life there is hardly anything that we can point and say is perfect...nothing is 100 % and we know it...our main goal as humans is always to focus on the majority and address and consider or change what the majority is going through..no matter how much we try we cant reach perfection...we cant be perfect or change things to become perfect...

DESIRES

2008-09-08T04:47:00.000-07:00

as humans we naturally have a lot of desires....a lot of basic instincts we have learned over time to survive...and come to think of it we can narrow down everything to food and sex....food to keep us alive...and sex to survive extinction....but as we have developed we have been trying to suppress or to channel these desires into something that is more acceptable for the society...but these primitive desires are still a major part of our daily activities.....in one way or another we constantly refer to these desires and we cant really live without them....but then there is always a test involved...in which we are taught self-restraint from all our desires...the point of this activity is to change us from the primitive man to a socially acceptable and an intellectual being who can over come these desires and see life from a different perspective than just another animal hungry for food and sex..we are meant to to do something better with our lives then just go after these desires which everyone is subconsciously going through everyday of their lives.....

BELIEF

2008-08-10T10:23:00.000-07:00

we believe in alot of things...we believe in ourselves..we believe in society...most of us believe in rule..regulations...but the best and the most ultimate belief would be..to believe in something that you have never seen...never felt...something you only hear about...something that is presumed to be watching you...in whatever you do...that will be an ultimate test of faith..if you truly believe...THEN stand up for your believes....stop thinking like everybody else.. search for answers...make your belief stronger...
because ultimately you have nothing to fall back to...this life is unpredictable and worthless...we are mortal...and if this is it then....we are screwed....

SECRET

2008-08-06T15:22:00.000-07:00

its something that someone might never think...but...come to think of it....there will always be something about you that no one else knows...and no one will ever find out...a secret or just an experience that only YOU went through...something no one else will take away from you..something thats only yours...that memory can be the only evidence that you have to yourself..that you are an individual...because you were alone..and something happened...which only you experienced...

opinions

2008-08-06T15:15:00.000-07:00

everybody has to have an opinion about something....it can be similiar to what others might have to say but everyone should be aware that having an opinion is a proof of their existence...
opinions show that we are human..and by that i mean that we are different from each other...esp when it comes to higher functions like thinking....everyone has a different personality...thats why everyone should have their own opinion...to show that they might have something else to provide..

THOUGHTS

2008-07-30T08:31:00.000-07:00

one thought can dominate your entire perspective on life and no matter how much you try to change, it just comes back..over and over to make you realize that you are incapable of thinking about anything else...and even when you do, you supconciously are thinking about it......
...there are times when one thought dominates your life at some point...its ususally something that scares you...or bothers you....or maybe it is an anticipation for something or someone...but there are times when you just cant let go of that thought...but there is always a reason why that thought keeps coming back...it is there to remind us that there are things that need to be done...and it prepares you for the event that will happen...the one anticipated....it keeps telling you what you want...the thing that might need to be happy....or the thing that might hurt you....

INDIVIDUALITY

2008-07-23T13:59:00.000-07:00

We never realize, but actually, this world is a lot bigger then we assume...there are so many people in our lives...everyone has their own story....and there are so many people around us..so many people we SEE each day...so many people we hear about..on the news...from others....when we consider that....then we realize that we are a very minute part of something, very big....yet we feel special...important....independent...but to someone else we might just be a part of something...and might never be an individual....for e.g. if someone talks about you, they always refer to your country....your city....your school....or the people you know...and they always relate you to someone or something....whenever we think about someone we always categorize them...putting them into a larger group...before we consider them as an individual...
yet the whole world is moving towards individuality....everyone tries to be independent...
But without each other...we are nothing....

TEST

2008-07-22T12:40:00.000-07:00

why should life be easy in the first place?....why should we assume that life should be all about flowers and sunshine??....because it isnt and people should be OK with it!....its not easy and there is a reason behind it...

HAPPINESS

2008-07-22T12:29:00.000-07:00

This is one of those subjective things that everyone believes in...but the problem is that everyone assumes that it is something that everyone experiences in the same way...everyone generalizes happiness...people just want to be "HAPPY"...but most of the time, they dont know what they are looking for...and most of the time they want something just because someone else has it and they seem "happy"...so we automatically assume that that thing would make us happy too...what we fail to consider is that everyone is not as HAPPY as they might seem to be....everyone has problems to deal with and just because they seem happy does not mean that they are actually satisfied with their lives....and the reason for that is that happiness is overrated by everyone...everyone paints a picture with endless diversity of colors...but no one realizes that picture is not easy to paint and that life is not easy....it might seem easy for some people, but as a matter of fact, it is a test....it is a test of integrity, faith, strength....

MEMORY

2008-07-21T03:07:00.001-07:00

humans have the ability to forget....our memory is something that will always stay with us but wont always stay on our mind...there will be times when we will stop thinking about something and let it go....thats why all bad memories will eventually leave us alone...but they dont go without leaving there marks....bad memories in a way, always change you....thats how they try to stay with us...that could be in a good or a bad way..but they do....once they have changed you, its time for them to go....and then its up to us if we want them to come back or not, by doing the same mistakes we did we invite them back into our lives....and thats only because we didnot learn our lesson the first time...we didnt change our lives, our ways...we never bothered to change ourselves or maybe we didnt think those were bad memories to begin with...and it starts all over again....

LIFE

2008-07-21T03:06:00.004-07:00

our whole existence revolves around us....no one in this life is important in the end but you....even when you lose someone close..ppl keep telling you to pull YOURSELF together...because its all about you and no one else....others come and go...the only one standing is always you...if you stop existing then that is were life ends....but if someone else stops existing..life goes on for you, no matter what...we die alone....

ABILITIES

2008-07-21T03:06:00.003-07:00

there are things in life that come naturaly to u...and somethings you work really hard for...but we never really appreciate what we have and always run after what we cant have or what we cant be....maybe this is what drives us to work...the whole purpose might be just to have something you can never have....and if u find it...u are what alot of people around you will never be.....but the worset part is that alot of people around us want exactly the same thing...and people who act all different and say that this is not what they want are actually hating the fact that they cant be like you....but then there are times when you dont get what you want....and that is a big blow to your existence...that is the time when you realzie that no matter what happens...life wont end here...you still have to focus and and try for something new...but no matter what you say...deep down everyone knows that you are damaged and it would never be the same again....and the big question remains..how many times will it take for you to stop existing?....when will it be time to let go?....

FEAR

2008-07-21T03:06:00.001-07:00

fear is natural....we are most of the times, afraid of what is happening around us...and that fear basically makes us aware of our surroundings...if we had no fear we would inflict damage to ourselves...and thats how we learn lessons in life...by inflicting damage...when we are young everything is exciting....we are fearless...bt as we age, we have inflicted enough pain to ourselves that it makes it impossible to live life without fear....and soon that fear takes over our entire life...
children on the other hand are so fearless that they might never realize what might harm them until they have experienced pain...

DEATH

2008-07-21T03:02:00.000-07:00

what really scares me is when people get old..what goes through their mind?..do they always feel scared that one day its all going to end??...what if they are alone and old?...what would I do if I was in that position?..would I still have a positive approach towards life?...see the point is that one day I am going to realize that I am oldI probably have a few years left..and I probably will die soon..then what would I do?..will I care about people remembering me?..or will I just except the fact that its all overwill I just give up and die before I actually die??..what if I do something really impressive and people remember me but after few years no one even remembers what I looked like or who I was?...i would be dead and it wont matternothing would matter..everything would be over and I could do nothing about it.then why cant I choose to have a life or not??..if I cant choose when to die?..then why cant I choose to have a life in the first place???...why are we forced into this life?..why go through so much trouble?...why go through all the bullshit?..and for what?...if I had a choice..i would choose to never be born..never go through thi stupid pointless life.because in the end..u dieand no one can do anything about itand everyone goes awayu are left aloneand then you die alone..

why do we have to see death?...why cant people just vapourize?...or vanish?...why do we have to see them fall sick and in pain?..why do we even have the instinct to care for othersI wish I could just stop caring.that would never hurt meand I know thats very selfish but It would be so easy to see people come and gonever to be sad or feel bad about themI guess one of the reasons why I wanted to be a doctor was to stop caringand never to get hurtbecause once I experience death more than anyone else..i might be able to deal with itbecause right now its the worst feeling to listen talk or do anything about

HUMAN NATURE

2008-07-21T02:54:00.000-07:00

the basic concept of this world is randomness...there is nothing that can be justified...everything is so random...the only way to justify things is statistics...which basically are an excuse to ignore everything that is wrong in this world and to consider only the most dominating or the most powerful evidence...and i think all those people who consider just one event and build their lives on it are although naive, but are in no way wrong...atleast they do believe in one thing..while others have to take a general concensis and then decide..they are basically scared to live there life...they rather live life with facts and evidence...while it is nothing but randomness...which no one can predict...what if you are a part of one of those rare events that almost never happens??..will you be able to ignore it?..will you still live your life that revolves around a bunch of statistical facts which would mean nothing to you at that point....for example statistics show that 1 in every 1000 people crossing for example the main road infront of the place u live will die....so will you be the one who thinks 1 is a significant number or will you think that its ridiculous to think that someone will die...because the statistics are so low....but everything will cahnge once you are the 1....your idea about te satisitical fact would change drastically....
this brings us to the unpredictability of life....it is so amazing that most of us can atleast predict our daily routines or anticipate what will happen tomorrow....if we didnot have that capability or if life was so unpredicitable that everyday would be the most different day ever spend in your entire life uptill that point, then it would be exciting to wake up everyday...not knowing what might happen the very next second....this is something we learn from the time we are born...because for a child every second would be a new feeling and a new sensation....children are no wonder always excited and happy....for them life is full of surprises and unpredictable events...but do we ever fear life when we are children?...do we ever get scared when we cant predict what might happen?....
