What is the meaning of life?

PARTY !!!!!

Many, upon asking themselves, answer this most important of questions with an inspirational statement or two that has applied to their own good and bad experiences in life. While many of these sayings like "be happy", "try your hardest", "never be discouraged" and so forth are ways to help make life more meaningful, they will still leave the question of life nagging indefinitely. As many words as one can say will never bring closure to the question, for the answer is not a logical conclusion that one can share with others.

The "answer" to the meaning of life can only be found within oneself, appearing through the experience of realizing the connection of the core of what makes your being with that of the universe. If you truly want to reach this understanding, you must be willing to disregard all that has come between the pure essence of your existence and the person you have become to function in the world. The door to this journey has been left closed by many more than have opened it, for the idea of making changes and seeing the world in new ways is frightening for those who have made themselves comfortable in their place. When these people are asked your question they will give you a quick and unsatisfying answer.

Try to isolate the feeling that led you to ask your question in the first place and discover where it came from. Only you can find your own way to the one answer.

is it ok if I just copy and paste my answer from the last time somebody asked that question?

All of the true things I am about to tell you are shameless lies.

In the beginning, God created earth, and he looked upon it in His cosmic loneliness.

And God said, "Let Us make living creatures out of mud, so the mud can see what We have done." And God created every living creature that now moveth, and one was man. Mud as man alone could speak. God leaned close as mud as man sat up, looked around, and spoke. Man blinked. "What is the purpose of all this?" he asked politely.

"Everything must have a purpose?" asked God.

"Certainly," said man.

"Then I leave it to you to think of one for all this," said God. And He went away.

so that's the story so far. At least, as far as the book of Bokonon tells us. But of course it's trash. The Principia Discordia says the following about its essential meaning:

GP: Is there an essential meaning behind POEE?

M2: There is a Zen Story about a student who asked a Master to explain the meaning of Buddhism. The Master's reply was "Three pounds of flax."

GP: Is that the answer to my question?

M2: No, of course not. That is just illustrative. The answer to your question is FIVE TONS OF FLAX!

So I guess the meaning of life is about 42 tons of flax, give or take five.

fireball: and what is the purpose of that life exactly? Is it turtles all the way down?

To make the universe as advanced as possible

Whether or not you believe this is the meaning, this is the only pursuit that all of human existence shares.

Richard:

I'm not trying to be silly or snooty, but my answer is pretty broad -- for a pretty broad question.

The meaning of life is to try to find meaning in everything in your life.

Will knowing the answer ,change anything for you ?

I don`t need any answers that won`t help me along in life .

to live , peacefully with out harming anyone , make this world beeter place as much as u can , live for great precious values , worship One God who created that world , and made humans the only creatures capabale of thinking.

To spread itself throught the entire universe, and then to create another universe to move to when this one is all used up. That's been happening forever, and will continue forever.

we should be preparing for the next life!

42.
