Purpose of life
A frequent question that vexes all human beings, except for those who are at the daily survival mode, is "What is my purpose in life? Why am I here? What can I do that will make my life more meaningful and purposeful?". Actually, to even ask that question reveals a certain amount of stillness having entered your being - you are a step closer to awakening.
And then we seek answers in a variety of things including our families, career, charity and so forth. Unfortunately, many times, even after committing ourselves to them and achieving our goals we end up feeling somewhat unfulfilled. Or more correctly, the fulfillment lasts for a short time before the yearning returns.
Human Beings are a part of the world. Part of Nature. Having lost their connection with their beingness, the human seeks fulfillment in the doing.
Which is, of course, impossible.
Humans then resort to taking all actions that make him/her seem wise and compassionate - since it seems emotionally and logically the right things to do - and yet, the lack of beingness - the absence of that connection to the totality - leaves one feeling incomplete even while performing that action.
Beingness connects. Beingness fulfills. Beingness tells your perfect action for now. And lo and behold - you are happy to just do what is needed to be done right now! With no worry about the future or considerations for the past!
Get connected. That is our purpose, above all else.
