Hare Krsna:

 

Sri Animeshji:

 

Not causing misery to anyone and at the same time keeping our self extremely happy, perhaps, is

the common purpose.

 

[Jahnava Nitai Das 2]

[is there proof that there is no common purpose to life ?]

 

Commenting on:

"In a way, we know for sure that there is no common goal which is being pursued by all People. That way, we can be sure that there is no common purpose to life, that is known to us."

 

There is a difference between a goal, and one's endeavour to achieve a goal. Simply because someone is not endeavouring to achieve a goal, it does not mean the goal does not exist.

 

The goal of school is to graduate. Some student may not be interested in this goal, and thus he may choose to fail. This does not prove there is no common goal in the school system.

 

There is a difference between a purpose in life (which perhaps would have been set by a creator), and what individuals are trying to achieve in their lives (maybe money, peace, power, fame, eternality, etc.).

 

If there is no common goal being pursued by all people, that simply indicates that they are either ignorant of the goal, or do not wish to achieve that goal.

 

It in no way proves their is no purpose set for life.

Sri Shvu:

 

>>>If there was a common purpose behind our creation, then I don't think it would be a matter

of choice left to us. Every human would have been working towards that, without exceptions.

 

Why should the matter be not left to our choice? Leaving the matter for us to decided is equally

feasible possibility.

 

Why should every human work towards that, without exceptions? Humans are given the freedom

to decide for themselves. They may choose any path they wish.
