What is the purpose of life?
We are all soul fragments of the One, Creator soul!
We're the seeds!
We grow, so does the universe within us!
What kind of universe do we dwell in and what kind of universe dwells within?
Ask yourself.
What happens when we fail at a task or fall down?
Our mind tends to learn the situation so that it never happens again!
As we grow, our mind refines itself!
It fails to learn more!
The more it falls, the more it rises!
It actually is life! We fall, get hurt and fail in life. Not to stop and die but to learn from our mistakes and refine ourselves! Thus, as we grow, so does our consciousness and the rate of adaptation and refining of the mind. This tends to increase when there is failure!
Imagine the same with the universal mind or creator mind!
Moreover, Humans were made in the image of Creator God!
Ask yourself now; what exactly is the purpose of our life?
Constant growth i.e. mental & physical!
With the mental and physical growth,
Grows the consciousness within us!
Characteristics of consciousness are that, it learns new things through experiences which it faces in different situations of life! We all are conscious about life though the level of perceptions are different, but we are conscious!
Have you ever wondered, where did this consciousness come out of nowhere within us? Actually, the consciousness always existed within the soul!
The very nature of consciousness is defined as a preset of ethics, understanding and self knowledge absorbed by us(soul) before our birth and the goal of achieving maximum possible level of consciousness and it's awareness by the end of this bodily life!
And after death, which is transformation, our soul merges with the universal, omnipresent soul i.e. the one soul!
What I understood about myself is, consciousness doesn't grow in the physical body, but with the understanding of mind, it's thought patterns and karmic actions taken by our body which make the consciousness take quantum leaps in its process of defragmentation & simultaneously expanding and thus refining every bit of the consciousness residing in one's body until it attains the universal conscious state!
You might ask what happens after it achieves this state? As humans were made in the image of Creator God, when we achieve universal conscious state of mind, being in this body itself i.e. being fully conscious of this dream of our creator, we will actually be lucid dreaming within the dream of the creator from his point of view, which expands this universe in terms of multiplication and not addition, and thus the expansion of the same universal mind and expansion of this physical universe! We can't stop or play the growth of the universe, as we can't stop time. But, we definitely can change its rate of growth as our consciousness can make quantum leaps through a matter of realization!
We have to understand that, the sum total of all the consciousness of all the living organisms in this universe is equivalent to the creator consciousness! We are all souls, fragments of one soul, pieces of one soul which are sown as seeds in this physical universe to grow and thus growing in the dimensions of our creator!
The amazing part of consciousness is that once it achieves a state, it cannot go back, it can't unlearn the experience it gained!
Imagine once,
If a part of your consciousness becomes so conscious that it gains consciousness equivalent to you, that means a part of you grew into a whole YOU within you and thus super expanding ( growing ) you!
That's the purpose of the Creator’s consciousness!
- growth -
But we are so diverted from our purpose that we are stuck in this dimension of his dream where karma is the matrix!
Now do you understand what they mean by attaining a Christ conscious state or Buddha conscious state or Krishna conscious state?
It all is the same, just the level of consciousness is different!
If we don't attain a level of consciousness, our soul predetermined before entering this dimension through the veil of forgetfulness, "we become that soul fragment which still needs more experience to attain perfection" thus the rebirth !
This is the universe which is still very complex for understanding, and there's no hurry, we're immortals, just the form changes!
Life itself is a school, know thyself!
And love is the state of consciousness where the growth is the positive and hate is the state where growth is negative!
Love everything!
Because all are you!
You are me and I am you and that's how I'm Buddha and I'm Krishna!
Know that every being you come across is you and a reflection of you and then, decide how would you behave with yourself!
Be conscious in every moment!
Love
