    The purpose of life is pleasure.

    For example, I pleasure the wives of travelling business men.

    You could say that I give life purpose.

    I used to think that wewere here to learn something before we die, but then I thought, what is the point of learning something if we are just going to die. This led me to think that perhaps there is something after this life in which we get to use what we have learnt - but then that would continue for eternity! So it just keeps going round in circles! Maybe then, this all means that life is something in which we just have to make the best we can........ but then that led me to think about all the people who havent been given a chance - those who are ill, alone, homeless etc..... what happens to them in this life? How can they enjoy this life if it that is what it is there for? So I am now confused again!! I don't know what the real purpose of life is!!!

    if that's the case, then why do we have higher cognitive abilities? why do we even have the capability to ask ourselves the question, 'what is the purpose of life?'

    The purpose of life is to LIVE, not to exist. Not to accumulate material things. Life is all about one's COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCES during one's time in this existence.

    Acording to me there are two worlds, one material and one antimaterial(spiritual), matery doesn't last long while antimatery last forevrer. This world and all liveing forms are here to learn and to go in the spiritual world after they realise that matery is not us, I meen true me is my soul, my fisical body is like a car to me, to led me where I should go... to use it for learning. there is reincarnation, we start our jorney in this world as planctons, controled of karma we are evoluteing... if we are good we are happy and if we are bad we sufer... whan we realise that matery doesn't last long and that our soul is immortal we are joining the spiritual world which is reality and now we are liveing in illusions, acording to Platon this world is reflection of the world of ideas which is real... two things are beautiful only because thay contain beauty in them and so on... acording to Aristotel god is defined as somethin that has one position and it inspires other to reach that position... so I think te purpose is to reach that condition:)

    We create evil, evil does'nt exicts, evil is lack of good... as dark is lack of light... as could is lack of warm, we can measure light and warm but we can't measure could and dark... so dark and could doesn't exists... evil olso doesn't exists

    Everything has it's opposites so where there's good, there must be evil to balance the equation [​IMG]

    i thought about that for a long time and there is only one answer. Life does not have a purpose. The only purpose life has is the one you give it.

    We create evil, balance exists here because this world is where karma rules, and karme brings the balance, people are evil because thay are not used not to be evil, our souls are not bad, thay are good, they are part of god. Evil comes from our minds not from our souls, and as I said this world is illusion or reflection of the real world, our mind is illusion, our body is illusion for us, illusion created to led us where we shoul go, so evil is ilusion and does'nt exists.
    peace

    My philosiphy is: Life is but a skipping stone. It sits motionless for millions of years until it is chosen to dance across the water, once the jig is up, it sinks to the bottom to once again to be motionless.
