Purpose of LifeΒΆ

To live with satisfaction, it is quite important for us to understand the purpose of our life and why we are here.

To normal eyes, it seems that Nature is just there without any purpose, but if you observe carefully, there is a definite purpose of Nature – to evolve or grow.

Trees grow. Animals, birds and human beings grow. Life evolves in the world, in term of both volume and intelligence. One living being gives birth to many. When organisms attain more intelligence than can be expressed by their design, new species are originated.

You have not come here to do this and that. You are created for being used as a tool of Nature to make yourself and the world evolve. Nature wants to grow by utilizing you. It is you who need to say yes.

Nature wants you to make the most of yourself, for the growth of yourself and for others.

That is your purpose.

Many people believe that acquiring eternal peace is the purpose of life. If eternal peace were the purpose of Nature, there was no need for it to grow up to this human era. Peace loving animals were enough.

Growth is the primary purpose. All others are derivatives or requirements. Whether to grow is not your choice. You are designed to grow. Your body is the proof – which grows irrespective of your conscious wish.

Human beings have a special capability compared to animals – apart from just being a part of the world, and getting utilized by the world, they can make conscious steps to make themselves and the world grow.

So, your purpose is to make yourself and the world grow by taking conscious steps to the best of your natural ability and potential with peaceful actions.

Remember - all your actions should be peaceful, using your natural abilities. You should not feel stretched, overloaded or pressurized. Life in you reduces when you feel stretched, overloaded or pressurized. This is against the purpose of Nature. If your duty is such that you need to work stretched, take actions like improving the system or your abilities.
