There Is More To This Question Than We Think
A question I received: Can you please explain the question “What is the meaning of life?”
My Answer: The question “What is the meaning of my life?” can be answered on the level of our world by “With what am I filling myself?” Or on the level of the spiritual world, the question is addressed by asking, “Whom am I pleasing?” “What should I do with my life?” “Where should I go?”
I have to unravel the mystery of the “meaning of life.” These related questions deal with the source of life: “What do we live for?” “Why do we live?” “What is the secret of life?” “How and why did life appear?” However, questioning “the meaning of life” isn’t necessarily a question about the origins of life, it’s more of an inquiry about why this all happened and where it is leading me. The question “What is the meaning of life?” deals with all the unanswered questions of my entire life.
Humanity is now asking this question. However, how profound or purposeful is the question that is actually being asked? For example, if a person has a mishap in his life or feels even the slightest dissatisfaction, he may ask, “What is the meaning of my life?”
The answer is revealed only after that question has been examined and toiled upon by hard labor and exertion and which is precisely directed toward the goal.
