The daily Master's quote - The purpose of life
Friends, pioneers of consciousness, I hope you are enjoying the ride. Buckle up, because starting next week we will embark on a path.
Where to? with whom? For how long? What should you bring?
Everything will be answered in my next post on Sunday.
Never ask your mind what's the purpose of life because it will always give you a good answer

Hi @nomad-magus!
Thanks for your recent visit and for the chuckle your amusing quote elicited. I'm looking forward to Sunday.. all buckled up. ;)
when i ask other the purpose of life they tell me that there is no purpose for the life and this is my thought aswell but you can't know if there is a purpose or not. we're alive so we need to do the best :)
NIce quote:
For the longest time, I believed that there’s only purpose of life: And that is to be happy. Right? Why else go through all the pain and hardship? It’s to achieve happiness in some way. And I’m not the only person who believed that. In fact, if you look around you, most people are pursuing happiness in their lives. That’s why we collectively buy shit we don’t need, some even go to bed with people they don’t love, and try to work hard to get approval of people we don’t like. Looking forward to your next post!
Indeed. But happiness is over rated. I will explain in future posts. Thanks for warming up. 😊👍
Reading this reminded me of Viktor Frankl’s writing:
“Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that is is he who is asked.”
I am truly sick of hearing that the purpose of life is happiness. That’s BS. Happiness is a fleeting emotion that comes and goes. You can’t keep it in your life constantly. Plus if happiness is the only emotion to seek, what about the rest of the emotions we experience. Are we saying we are less human because we get angry or sad from time to time? They are a part of being human too — important parts that we should experience during life. We grow from these experiences. I just want to make the best out of this life and experience things the way they are.
I would be waiting for your next post @nomad-magus.
"That's BS"
Indeed.
There can have many purposes of life!!
If we speak in a spiritual way then there can be only one purpose n that's to worship almighty GOD by the core of a heart but if we speak it in any other way then there can be a lot of purposes varying from person to person!! One of them can be to serve humanity in a best possible way!!
Also another one can be to become a successful person in the world etc!!
But whenever I try to question myself what my purpose is I always end up losing!!
I'll talk about it!
To me, the purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Thanks for the very valuable participation
Life Many people ask what life is
To me is to get rid of your bad habits. Get new positive convictions. Use new mechanisms. "Do not scratch your skin except your nails." Know your limits and stay in the middle. People accept as they are. Speak in an interactive manner, without provocation or imposing your point of view. Know what you want, it's up to you. Make incentives and do not imitate anyone. Enjoy introspection and trust your intuition. Do the necessary things immediately without delay and arguments. Do not do several things at the same time. Build your own project with enthusiasm and realism. Know yourself, your strengths and weaknesses. Try to distinguish from others. Always work hard and persevere ... tirelessly. Secret in your path and do not care too much for social pressures. Have confidence. Accept variation.
Thank you for this. I am waiting next Sunday for my greetings to you. @nomad-magus
I agree with you @nomad-magus, because our mind will always think of a happy happy, and always want to achieve the perfect success ..
The mind will always give something to look for, to achieve, a carrot to follow, a purpose to persue, yet never to reach.
It means it is the same as lust, wanting to be without being able to reach it ..
Waiting, keep up with the great posts.
Shabat Shalom!
Now I'm curious..
I'm feeling just like that statue about what this is..
