Meaning
of Life
If we really
try to understand the meaning of life... all becomes clear! Who
are we, why do we live, what is the meaning of death, why do we
suffer, what is the meaning of happiness... the list of queries
is endless! Life has as a very deep imbibed meaning... we only need
to read between the lines! Those indulging in wanton desires and
materialistic riches fail to understand the real meaning of life!
Such people always get bogged down at one point of time!
Life was never
meant to be monotonous! If only happiness existed... man would not
be happy! Neither if only sufferings existed! Life is a journey...
never a destination! As we live life... the path unfolds itself!
As we mature... the intricacies of life become clearer to us! Those
who gain enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) reach the end of cosmic
life. They become the knower of all. Nothing more to learn in life...
such enlightened souls finally gain salvation (moksha)!
For
those indulging in wanton desires and materialistic riches... life has an absolutely
different meaning! For them becoming wealthy is the end of all! No matter what...
they simply want to become rich overnight. For them the means have become an end!
Such human beings truly are a worthless lot existing on Mother Earth. When comes
the opportune moment... such people vanish into thin air... the society feeling
reprieved! Those
who take charge of life early manifest destiny. Such people understand the underlying
cosmic truth. It is our soul atman residing within our heart that is the sole
owner of the body. It is not within the capability of the body to manifest a soul
atman within. A man of wisdom ultimately realizes that the fruits of karma always
belong to the soul atman within and never the body... the human being! Why not
continue doing karma... the Nishakama karma way! Bhagavad
Gita... the doctrine given to man and by Lord Krishna makes it explicitly clear
that man is but a pawn in the hands of God Almighty. We simply do the bidding
of our soul atman within. We come unto this mother earth not of our own! We simply
get born! The soul atman within manifests body to work out its karma... remove
the dross within! The moment complete dross removes... one reaches the last leg
of cosmic life... the 8.4 millionth manifestation! Bhagavad
Gita also clarifies that every single entity in the cosmic system... every individual
human being has a unique identity in the whole cosmos! Each one of us has a specific
task to accomplish. What is our destiny... what is our goal of life... is what
life is all about! We need to find the goal of our life by hearing the sweet small
inner voice of our soul atman within that seems to come from within our heart!
Establishing a goal in life is journey half completed. Establishing
a goal in life is the most essential necessity in the life of a human being! Above
95% people on Mother Earth do not care to have a goal in life. They wither away
the precious moments like a rudderless boat going round and round in the ocean!
Having finalized a goal and going after it with all eggs in one basket with the
bulldog determination of Winston Churchill... one finally transcends life forever!
I again repeat... life is not a destination but a journey! Essay
