What is Life?

Answering what life is ?
Life has got no meaning and no definition. And that’s what beautifies it. If we let our mind give a meaning to it, it gets contaminated and tainted!
Life is ‘this moment’; the present; the Now. How can ‘Now’ be defined? It simply is!
The mind divides life into past, present and future. That’s a fallacy. There is no past, present and future. Universe knows only about this moment. The whole universe is alive in the Now. Time and space are only concepts. Our mind gives us these concepts that are totally utilitarian and have got nothing to do with reality.
To live life for me is to be aware and conscious of each and every passing moment of it. If we are alert, we live; the moment we are not alert we waste it, we are dead. Quite unfortunately, most of the human lifetime is spent in unawareness and unconsciousness.
Even to concentrate on one’s breathing (being alert and aware) takes a lifetime’s practice and sometimes even more! This shows how unconscious we are! How lost we are!
The purpose of life:
After having searched for, and contemplating on, ‘the purpose of life’ in books, discourses, meditation etc., whatever experience, wisdom and knowledge I have been able to gather from inside and outside myself tells me that life’s only purpose is to simply live it! It’s as simple as that. Yes, life’s only purpose is to live it! Everything boils down to this conclusion at last.
