Live Life

“ Whats the point in living this life? Is there meaning at all in living life ? “ these are questions which everyone have thought in some point of their life.

Belive me these are tougher questions.. even the greats didn’t answer, if at all they answered, it was either to satisfy their followers or bolster up their ego.

If u ask a bachelor , he’ll say “ macha, I just want to njoy life daa… I don’t care , I don’t bother about responsibilities, all I want to do is have lots of money and girls around.. that’s it “

Ask the same Question to a married man.. “ I live for my wife and children, I want to see them happy and satisfied.. I want to see my child growing up , getting a nice degree.. seeing them get married and settled” will be his answer..

But folks just think ..are we here to just to make money , flirt with girls , work for wife , work for children, take care of ailing parents..??

Yeah.. these upto a certain extent gives a little meaning to life .. but if u see in a overall perspective does it?

What happens if u die now.. do u think all the dependents will also die with u… wont they live their life…? Yaa.. 1 day .. 1 week .. 1 month .. 1 year… things will gradually change and they would get used to the reality and things will happen as it used to happen..

Am illustrating this fact to make u understand .. u shouldn’t think life will stop without you.. which in turn means you should not burden urselves with all these problems and think that you are warriors and saviours .
This clearly illustrates that these things are not the one which gives meaning to our life..

Then wat is it that gives meaning to this life.. ?

Yoga teaches us to concentrate and meditate .. the idea of meditation as all of u know is to increase the concentration and focus on the present..

Why should we focus on the present… it is to experience .. yes.. experience this current state of our being…

It is the experience that will give meaning to this life…go out .. do watever u feel like… experience..do watever u always want to do … take out this burden from ur back and learn to njoy the nature, kid’s smile , puppy playing on the street .bcoz it is that which will make you content..

Remember.. The only person who can give meaning to ur life is U .. none other…so “Live Life” on ur own terms..

I agree ... U are the only person who can make ur life either miserable or beautiful, choice is yours.
We have come to birth as Humans and not any other species.
Probably there is a moto behind it which we need to explore!!!!
Life is a vicious circle... and self realisation is the only way to get out of it.
Live life in the right spirit!

My few cents on it... We are not independent entity. But the dependent entities will change their dependency if the need arises. Our actions do affect our dependents.

but liked the line "person who can give meaning to ur life is U"
