Some may say Nay, "then they will know nothing." I suggest one thing; that you need to figure it out before you die because it may be important. I would also suggest that no man knows the truth and unless a Divine being reveals the truth about life none will know the purpose for life. Yet all can observe the creation and some will see God and some will not and it will not be a matter of intelligence but of other qualities. A good man like Einstein in His honesty realized God and although he would have liked to explain God knew he could not. If you are confused about the purpose of life and indeed you are despite your best efforts to find a comfortable theory then open your mind to what might be uncomfortable. Indeed most of the problems regarding life's purpose have been the result of religion and that is much different than the truth. In that most uncomfortable of all things - the Bible - God says, "The fool has said in his heart there is no God." There is more to life than you can observe, contrive, or in any way prove and that was part of the plan because life is about you and certainly it is a test and you will make choices in life that determine your success or failure. Many, many people will never come close to the understanding they need. One last thing for some ......... God is real, the Bible is His revelation and what men have done religiously to the truth is enough to make me look somewhere else for the truth - but the truth is still there. You will need a love of th truth much more than the love of your colleagues.Alannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6052690275993145605.post-3902237409881517852009-06-03T13:26:41.698-07:002009-06-03T13:26:41.698-07:00cheesecheeseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6052690275993145605.post-44207485909453756562009-06-03T07:33:56.762-07:002009-06-03T07:33:56.762-07:00Seems like the bumptious pistileer's meaning o...Seems like the bumptious pistileer's meaning of life involves tautaulogy, contradiction and using a ton of heavy words to confuse the lack of a point.

I have struggled with the meaning of life for 30 odd years and I don’t claim to have solved it but I think I may have discovered a little piece. It doesn’t matter who I am, because if you get the idea of what is expressed below you will realise you experienced the revelation.<br /> <br />I believe Life will always find a way to evolve into a form that will promote its own survival and ability to grow. Essentially, I believe life is a chemical reaction, a single entity constantly renewing itself, adapting to its environment. I believe it has evolved to create the human species for a purpose and that purpose may be simply to recognise what life actually is. It is important to recognise that human life is a result of evolution and natural selection. (I acknowledge that I have just turned off a lot of you who have faith in a God; I apologise but please bear with me and read on)<br /><br />I was afraid that when I died I would lose my sense of existence, seems obvious. But I am convinced my sense of existence is life itself. I am convinced that you the reader are immortal, that you have been here since life on earth began and will be here when life is finally extinguished on this planet. You have changed form uncountable times and you have no memories of those lives as they have died and decayed with the bodies they inhabited. But you have continued on in each and every living thing.<br /><br />Think of your own life as a new born, a blank sheet, no memories, no experience, it is pure existence with no substance. Some life is very complex like ours; some never gets past being simply stimulated by light and nourishment. But each and every life is the same canvas, painted differently by DNA and defined by different life experiences, the way we cement together the DNA and those physical and emotional life experiences on matter, create the unique individual that you are. When we die that unique individual dies and will never walk on this earth again, but death is irrelevant to life, death is only relevant to matter, and matter dies when it can no longer support life. The unique individual is gone and should be grieved, but you must recognise that his or her life-force (existence) is the same as yours. Yes, they had different capabilities to you, you might recognise those capabilities as being lesser or greater than your own, but those capabilities relate to the matter they inhabited, not the life that allowed them to exist. The matter they inhabited could no longer support life for whatever reason. Life does not have a personality, or an opinion, nor does it have a choice, it is a simple chemical reaction and when it recognises that it exists, that life is YOU.<br /><br />I believe that life is energy and is essentially indestructible, as are all things in the Universe. Energy will change form, matter will eventually break down to its original elements but neither can be destroyed.<br /><br />I do not believe in any of the conventional varieties of god. I do not believe in reincarnation, I do not believe you can remember a past life as all life experiences die with the brain. I do not believe in karma, good and evil are irrelevant and are human concepts appropriate to which side of the fence your sitting on. I do not believe in any kind of Spirituality; if you must believe in a spirit believe in your own, look at the natural world and recognise that each and every life is yours. I do not believe in an afterlife just continuous life. <br /><br />However, I do believe in cause and consequence, if you steal from someone you are that person who will feel the loss. If you abuse a child you are the recipient of that abuse and will suffer the consequences. If you build a poor house you will live in that house as long as it is inhabitable. I’m sure you can think of experiences that may have affected your life or others. The bottom line is you are both the perpetrator and the victim. I believe you were Jesus Christ, Muhammad, Budda, Adolf Hitler, and Ghangus Khan. So there is a code or a fundamental rule to what I believe and it is the old “Do unto others as you would want done to yourself” because I believe there is no truer statement than that.<br /><br />It is very simple, but I truly believe in this idea and if you understand the concept it is extremely empowering. This idea has had an amazing effect on how I think we should be conserving Earth’s resources. How important it is to respect all forms of life, and allow organisms to have a quality of life, especially the ones we use to feed ourselves with. We should all go out of our way to make every living thing’s life that little bit easier. If something must be killed and there is no doubt that taking life is necessary, the killing should be done as quickly and painlessly as possible. <br /><br />I believe when a new life comes into the world its sense of existence is exactly the same as yours. I believe you were every plant, every dinosaur, every killer whale, and every cockroach. I believe you are every living thing; you can not cease to exist unless every life in the universe is extinguished, <br /><br /><br />But what is the point?, you may be asking, well for me and therefore for you, it gives our lives purpose and that purpose is that we as a species must be totally committed to space exploration programs. Focusing not on human life in space, I don’t think that it is sustainable or effective at this point in time, but it may come in time and I’m talking billions of years. WE MUST FOCUS on the transport of Life’s foot soldiers, Bacteria or Achaea (Genetically modified if necessary) to planets with a life expectancy beyond our own solar system’s. I believe that is why we have evolved into who we are; our mission is to take life to the Universe. IT IS IN YOUR INTEREST, YOU ARE THE ONLY BENEFICIARY. We must take sustainable life, no matter how primitive, as far into space as we can, like a tree dropping its seeds, the tree has no idea if any of them will sprout; it just puts them out there. It may even be how life on Earth began. We must send the basic building blocks of life into space with the same urgency that a couple of any species goes about having sex, we have the capability, we could wait until we have improved the capability, but you will never see a male of any species be too concerned about his early technique. We must take our chance; we must impregnate the universe, before disaster strikes our capable civilisation. I’m not saying disaster is inevitable, but our Human history is not encouraging. We have the chance, we should take it, look how long it has taken human life to evolve on Earth. We can always improve our chances of taking life off planet Earth as time goes on but we should and must have a go now. It is nature’s law. Life must survive at all cost, YOU must survive! <br /><br />However, I don’t want to sound fanatical, even though the importance weighs on me. I also realise that if we fail to promote life, or if we destroy the Earth and all life on it, it will only be a matter of time before somewhere in the Universe (if it hasn’t happened already a million times over) conditions will become perfect for life to begin again, for you to be born again. But it would seem such a terrible waste if you take into account the billions of years and the painstakingly slow evolution of life here on earth to reach this point where I can express this concept to myself, to you, to Life.<br /><br />Life is god, because without existence god is irrelevant. You are god, seemingly powerless, as am I, but together, because we are life, we can be truly godlike, we can make things happen. You, your life and what you do with it is the only thing that matters. I want to beg you to jump on board, I have a vision and I know most of you do as well, we are just afraid to give it voice. We must come together as one, we must put aside religious differences, we must put down the guns, we must come together under one government and we must banish poverty and ignorance. We must halt the waste of the Earth’s resources and control our Population. We must focus on our Planet’s long term survival and we must take our existence, our life to the Universe.<br /><br />It may be that through evolving into the most intelligent species on the planet, life has taken hold of its own destiny and instead of leaving it to natural selection, has through us as humans allowed the future evolution of life to be guided by us/you. <br /><br />What really annoys me and frustrates me is that I will probably never come to this realisation again when I am renewed. Even if this belief I have was taken on by the whole human race, I would say because I am you and you are thinking what a load of rubbish, this person must be insane. <br /><br />Such is life, there is no escape, there is no “Rest in Peace” we must carry on Life’s fight to survive even if the only fight at the moment is amongst ourselves, over trivial stuff like religion and money; it is a beautiful, frustrating and ugly thing! It is Heaven and Hell on earth, but it is comforting and nourishing to believe in an immortality that to me is less of a fairytale than the ideas conventional religions would have you believe. Let’s make our immortality as comfortable and painless as we can. How much do you need to be comfortable, I need a home that keeps me warm and dry, I need clean water and fresh food, I need to live without fear of my neighbour, I need all the education and knowledge available, I need respect, I need purpose, I need music, nature and love, I need to have my voice heard. I am you and we all need these things. We need to get on with it. We need our leaders to be courageous and trust in each other, we need to have one vision; all of us have a part in this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6052690275993145605.post-33468768942012398132009-04-23T04:00:00.000-07:002009-04-23T04:00:00.000-07:00A slight problem with that, SandyBeach: When you r...A slight problem with that, SandyBeach: When you reach the end of your life journey, you're dead.<br /><br />TRiG.TRiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12252536592916793907noreply@blogger.com
