MEANING OF LIFE

Sadiq, the most humble blogger I know, raises a couple of ultimate questions which are widely discussed in philosophical, religious and other aspects. Check out the interesting thoughts left by many. My responses were:

1. What is the meaning of life?

From the solar systems to our internal organisms all have been created (by God) in order to serve different purposes. It is for us to harmonize with this order.

So why do we need a meaning?

"Everywhere one seeks to produce meaning, to make the world signify, to render it visible. We are not, however, in danger of lacking meaning; quite the contrary, we are gorged with meaning and it is killing us." - Jean Baudrillard French, Postmodern Philosopher, Writer.

How could drops of water know themselves to be a river? Yet the river flows on.

2. What is the best thing one can get in life?

Being humble. When you respect & love others (even your enemy) you are bound to get respect in return and your life will be surrounded with love and happiness.
