The Purpose of Life...as in Gita
The purpose of human life is to enquire:
Who am I?
Where have I come from?
What will happen to me at death?
Why do I suffer?
Why do others suffer?
Who is God?
How can I serve God?
Why is there variety of living beings?
How can I get out this cycle of birth, old age, disease, and death?
How can I live eternally?
Only the human beings enquire, the animals do not enquire. Unfortunately at the present time many humans have become two legged animals.
Give up lust, greed, and anger. These force us to sin and the result is hellish life in this life and the lives after.
Give up the killing of animals, especially the cows. The animals are also our brothers and sisters. This means no meat eating and no leather (car seats, sofas, clothing).
Human birth is rare, we have to make the best use of it by not engaging in sinful activities. The sinful activities are being greedy, lusty, angry, and violence against other living beings (animals and humans).
Don't waste this life by getting attached to the bodily platform of life (meat eating, lust, greed, anger, partying, discoing, bollywood and so on). This body is just one drop in the ocean of bodies that we are going through. A sword is hanging over your head. It will fall at any moment. All your properties, cars, and big bank balance won't help you at the time of death.
Your grandfather has died, you will also die, and your children will also die. Death is certain, it's only a matter of time. Still you are madly accumulating money and working very hard all day like a donkey. You do not care for the soul which is eternal, but you care for the body which is temporary. This is ignorance. In ignorance the soul becomes degraded and after this life. Such people take birth as dogs and hogs. There are 8.4 million different bodies that the soul keeps circulating in, one after the other. The fools will not think of the life after this one. They will simply mate, eat, sleep, and be merry. This is animal mentality. The animals also mate, sleep, eat and be merry. The only difference between the animals and the humans is that humans enquire all above mentioned questions.
We are the soul and not this body. The body is temporary but the soul is eternal and immortal. Our aim in life should be to escape from fangs of material life (birth, old age, disease, and death). This can only be done by humans, who have the higher consciousness.
We can attain an immortal spiritual body full of bliss, knowledge, eternal, and without a trace of calamity if we follow the Bhagavad-Gita with seriousness.
