Answer 1

42, lol sorrry someone had to do it, im just the geek hu did lol actually i recon the meaning of life is basically to live, living and doing wat we do is our fate, everything happens for a reason just like now, im supposed to be writing this answer to you and the reason for our existance is just to exist, and perhaps sometimes other people do charitable things like donate money or save lives and thats the reason for thier existance they were meant to save that person or donate that money but that doesnt mean that people hu don't are any less important, sometime somewhere the reason for our existance is revealed but sometimes, you will never know, with one look you could have saved a persons life and not even know it, well theres my answer pretty deep but i hope it helps and gives u an insight best wishes xxxx

80% of humanity, the religious folks, don't need to ask the meaning of life, the church tells them....the supernatural explanation. But the rest of us can't swallow religious dogma, because there's no evidence. Nobody can prove that there life after death, that people are tortured or rewarded after life or that there's invisible spirits running around.

I've come to two conclusions recently:

1. Life has no meaning
2. Life has a million meanings.

First, there's a certainty that death and annihilation awaits not only you, but the Earth in general. It's an astonomical certainty that our sun will supernova and leave the earth a burnt crisp, not to mention all the other extinction level events around the corner.

Second, the million things that give us meaning are the pleasurable experiences we can conjure up during the short period we are here on the earth, in the form of the relationships we have with our kids and other people, and the 'housekeeping' types of purposes. What i mean by that are the curing disease, ending hunger, improving literacy, reducing crime, preventing war, helping other kinds of things.

So the bottom line is, we only have a temporary meaning to life, to reduce pain and increase pleasure, other than that everything is lost to oblivion.

Since any of us has only so much time, I'd day the basic animal instinct is reproduction. To rise above animals, "intellectually" or "spiritually" we must employ what makes us better than animals, cultiuvate our talents, pursue the things we most enjoy or that give us fullfillment, a life well spent is doing that which leaves us content with thoughts of what we did, instead of wishes of what we had or hadn't. For some it's helping others, for others, it's helping themselves. The best people I've known were those who minded their own business but always tried to help those who asked for it, they were Christians, but they didn't push their beliefs on anyone, the lead by quiet example, not by pushing others from behind.

Answer 4

Life has different meaning to everybody. Everybody takes it according to own experience.

For me, Life is a precious gift from God. Life is a combination of rhythm, motion, energy and struggle to achieve the ultimate goal.

Nothing is static in this world. Every object moves in a certain time cycle, that is called rhythm. This movement generates energy required for some purpose.

What about you, Pal?

Answer 5

The meaning of life to be MORE than simply exist!
it is about leaving a print on this world whether it is through thousands of people or only the ones around your perimeter.

Answer 6

"Life is not an eternal search for God: Life is an Eternal Expression of God."
What do you think of this statement? Moreover, the level of evolution that we have achieved so far only shows us how far we can truly reach. Existence is God experiencing God’s self through us and all of life. We are individual, unique, divine, aspects of the whole seeing itself through our different perspectives. This is the essence of life, to experience all things in all ways and to expand to undreamed of levels of awareness and creativity. So my main question is this. Should we not unleash ourselves from our own self-contained ideology and rhetoric and understand the unlimited nature of the universe which is God? This is Life!
