I would say that the purpose of life is to make peace with yourself. In the same kind of environment, one may feel happy and satisfied and another may be unhappy with full of complaints. When you look at an infant, it’s easy to see. In one room, there are many fun toys. One child is playing happily by himself. One child is crying without touching any of the toys. One child might be just chasing after other boys. They all act differently in the same environment. We all experience many different things in our lives. We tend to blame it on the looks, job, talent, destiny… but the real cause isn’t any of these. These factors are changeable.
Whether you are happy or not is determined by how close you live truthfully to your good will (innate god). Good jobs, good looks, etc., doesn’t make you change in a better way. That is an illusion. No matter how many things you attain, your complaints and anxiety will not be erased. No matter how your situation is, if you are in harmony with your true heart, feeling grateful that you are led to live, you will be able to satisfy yourself. And when you are in harmony with the goodness of your heart, you will attract true fortune.
When you acknowledge that you are “led to live” and not just the fact that you are living, things will turn even better. Don’t stay busy looking around. Go dig into your inner truth. Then you will know what to do. Humans feel true satisfaction by giving to others and not by filling their own greed. The more you desire to attain and to win, the more you hunger and be restless. When your life is about how can I make other people happy, how can I help those who nee help… then your heart will be satisfied. There are limits to giving material gifts, but giving your good will, kindness is limitless and everyone has it. This is the Law of Virtue. Use is wisely.
Same thing can be said about your ancestors. You are not living alone. You are a representation of the numerous ancestors who lived before you. Your DNA is the evidence. It carries everything. You have inherited everything including the unsatisfied and regretful thoughts of your ancestors. But when you shine your light by being kind to others, not only you are saved but your ancestral spirits are finally able to elevate to the heavens. The repetition of acting on your good will create an accumulation of positive magnetic energy field around you that would lead to opening up your path.
The point of today was about your life purpose being in harmony with yourself. Make peace with yourself by forgiving yourself and being grateful for your existence. Life is about change. Don’t worry. It will be alright.
