what do you think the meaning of life is?

Answer 1

The meaning of life to me is that we are here to learn. We are here to learn to love and respect ourselves for who we really are and to learn from our mistakes so that we can understand and help others in similar situations. We are also here to learn how to follow our hearts and to believe in ourselves and our dreams and make them come true and to shine our light into the world and help others without expecting anything in return.

Answer 2

It took me a while to figure this one out. Life has no meaning. It is spontaneous and transient.

Feel free to keep searching for your own answer. It is not a wast of time to search because time has no meaning or good use. All time is a wast and that's what makes it special!

I like quoting song lyrics. "I tried so hard and got so far but in the end it didn't even matter".

So you may ask, then why bother living? I am still working on that part but for now, my answer is "what else is there to do?"

Answer 3

The meaning of life is not ever knowing the meaning yet, still going on and doing the right thing.

Answer 4

For a moment, let your mind go back to the beginning of the Universe, to the place where it all started. Look, there is One Force. This One has all and lacks nothing, is infinite without limitation, pulsating with great joy, and absorbed in bliss. This One is God.

However, for no compelling reason- for the sake of pure sport- the One multiplies into the many. From the many, the universe comes into existence. A unified whole becomes the universe full of contadictions. It is a battle between the haves and have-nots, goodness and evil, intelligence and ignorance, wealth and poverty, success and failure.

Through the process of creation, the Creative Force chooses to forget its infinite, all-knowing divine nature and takes upon itself the facet of ignorance. It plays the material game of being a limited human being. It is simultaneously eminent and transcendent.

When this Force takes the form of human beings, the game then becomes an attempt to regain its divine origin- the original, unified One- through the mundane living of life's challenges, the overcoming of its own self-imposed shortcomings and flaws. Humans are made in the image of our Creator. The characteristics of all-pervasiveness, omniscience, onmipotence, complete unqualified love, and pure ever-new bliss plus countless other qualities are secreted within the deep recesses of each of our hearts. Through the game of creation, the Almighty takes on the qualities of ignorance and then struggles to rediscover Oneness.

If you are made from the substance of that Divine Power, how can you be anything but divine?
Just as a lion cub raised among sheep is still a lion although he mistakenly thinks himself a sheep, so a person may think they are but a helpless human, yet their divine nature within remains unblemished and ever blissful.

Even the game of struggle to realize our highest potential in the material and mental realms in our daily lives is nothing but a play manufactrued by our Creator and our individual spirits. The mind and body are experiencing the drama of human struggle, the spirit considers this devastating struggle part of the fun.

It's all a dream, an illusion. We are in a matrix. This is nothing more than a theme park. Have fun.
