We need to seek the relevance of our life. Why do we need to exist in this world?

"Gurkha, flying a swift and powerful vimana (fast aircraft hurled a single projectile (rocket) charged with the power of the Universe (nuclear device). An incandescent column of smoke and flame, as bright as ten thousand suns, rose with all its splendor.

It was an unknown weapon, an iron thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death, which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas.

The corpses were so burned as to be unrecognizable. Hair and nails fell out; Pottery broke without apparent cause and the birds turned white.

...After a few hours all foodstuffs were infected...
...to escape from this fire the soldiers threw themselves in streams to wash themselves and their equipment."
ؤؤ The Mahabharata

"(It was a weapon) so powerful that it could destroy the earth in an instant A great soaring sound in smoke and flames And on its sits death..."
ؤؤ The Ramayana

Some people in the world are obviously self-aware, even to a fault, while others are so self-UNaware that they seem to have no regard for how they come across, and how their presence affects others. I actually envy the latter bunch.

What do you think contributes to a person being so solid in their posture before the world, that they never question themselves or have to be self-reflective about how their Being impacts others?

Looking for the name of the author/book series. Its like 6-7 books long and i was waiting on the last one to come out...the author was sent to the mayo clinic so it was delayed and he said if it was 1500 pages he'd end it. The series is fictional in a setting where witches had to go to special place when the spark was found in them so they didn't harm themselves or others. While if men had the spark in them they had to have it removed and once that happened they eventually lost the will to live. Its been awhile since i read them and cannot think of the name. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
