Aim of Life

Aim of Life -Anant Sri

The aim of life is life itself. Life is flowing towards its collectiveness. It is we that try to shatter and limit it and thereby create alternative aims and objectives. To enter into the collectiveness of life and to be in tune with life is seeking. But we in the name of seeking also create numerous alternative aims and objectives. We search for salvation, we look for ultimate bliss, and we search for enlightenment whereas to know life in totality, to live it and to be one with it is the actual salvation, ultimate bliss and realisation.

Life in itself is so vast that there can be no other aim or no other purpose other than life itself. To be able to live life in totality, moving through, layer by layer, is life’s natural aim and purpose.  When you are completely open towards life and welcome life without any opposition then whatever is beautiful and meaningful, things and experiences begin to happen around you. The natural qualities of life like truth, goodness, beauty, love, compassion, peace, bliss etc surround you from all sides, and you become pervaded by them. If you don’t obstruct life from your end then life is like this in its natural way. But you obstruct the natural flow of life due to your aims and objectives. See your aims and objectives as waves rising in the flow of life and then there will be no problem. Don’t be too serious, be playful with them.

Always be alert and aware and have an attitude of wonder towards life and be completely open to it. Welcome life in its totality without any insistence, unconditionally and without any alternative, and then the mysteries of life will unfold before you and you will be able to enjoy the waves of your aims and objectives being in sync with the vast flow of existence.

    “We often miss the point of living because we are too busy trying to find a PURPOSE for it.”
    A beautifully expressed reflection, simple yet profound. It gently reminds ME that life needs no other purpose than to be lived fully, openly, and playfully, and that true bliss arises when we flow with life instead of trying to control it.
