what do we truely own in this world?

Answer 1

Death and taxes... the rest is fate. You CAN have health as long as you don't get hit by a meteorite or something along that line if you take care of yourself.

Answer 2

Our mental functions like cognition, perception, memory etc. The mind is the window through which the world around us seeps into the soul. If all the material around us vanishes what we will be left is our perceptions and consciousness, which we may call truly our own. All actions in this world are indulged in to experience a change in consciousness by the agents of such acts. If no effect on consciousness was desired all actions would cease since the soul would have attained samadhi. As mortals all we own is our consciousness and its subjective interpretation.

Answer 3

Dear Friend, Nothing at all, you and I are just a part(component) of this infinite universe. Ex. in a human body if you were the Liver and I were the Kidney and so on, who owns the human body. components dont own the product and human being is just a component of the whole universal system. If our thought strongly says that we are something important in this universe, the thought is wrong. bcos our thoughts are just based on the survival instincts. We have to grow over this to get the answer. It is better to say that I am a part of this world than trying to know what I can own.

Answer 4

The only thing you truly "own" is the present moment in time. Well, you don't "own" it necessarily, but it's the one thing you never lose.

You can lose knowledge if you lose your memory in a car accident, you can lose all of your material possessions if a hurricane destroys your house, and you can lose your sense of self if a traumatic experience causes you to go permanently insane.

But the present moment is always yours to do with whatever you please. As long as you're alive, it's the only point in time you'll ever experience (you'll never directly experience the past or future, only the present). If you think about all the things you could be doing RIGHT NOW, it's virtually infinite. You can do anything it's physically possible for you to do. No matter what happens to you, you will always be able to do whatever is physically possible with the present moment in time.

Answer 5

Our character. The only thing that can't be taken from us is the sum of who we are. That is why it does matter what we do with our thoughts our time our talents our actions. Every person on this earth has an effect on someone else. We exist, and because of our existence, we make a difference. We may never know what that difference is, or for whom. We can choose to only see ourselves. But when it comes down to it, who are you when you think no one is looking? Who are you when it really counts? Who are you when there's no time to think, you must act, NOW? That, no one else can give you or take from you. You earn that, you own it.
