Life is Meaningless Flashcards
Realising that nothing comes with a build in meaning. Realising the unconditional quality of existence letting you provide the meaning and limitations. Keeping life meaningless and analysing the fear behind the need for meaning.
Has life any purpose or meaning?
We are still thinking about this because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.
Life is meaningless.
There is not one big cosmic meaning for all. Actually, nothing comes with “built-in” meaning.
Nothing comes with “built-in” meaning.
All situations, circumstances, things in life are neutral and devoid of any particular “Built-in” meaning. They are neutral props, symbols. In other words, there is no automatic built-in meaning to anything.
The Unconditional quality of existence.
All things are devoid of any meaning, so that you are capable of being the interpreter of your own reality. Existence is unconditional. You are the one supplying the conditions, not existence.
You bring the meaning to life.
You bring the meaning to every situation, circumstance in life. Either automatically (unconsciously) or intentionally (by choice). So there is only the meaning we each give to our experience. And maybe, the meaning of your life is what your life means to you now.
If you want to put it in another way you could say, the meaning of life is for you to give it a specific meaning.
You are the only one supplying the limitations. You are the only one able to change them.
The fact is that, the only reason you experience the limitations that you do, is because you have decided to, for one reason or another. If we become aware that we put the limitations then we become aware that we can give us permission to change them.
The purpose of this life is to be this ‘You’ as fully as you possibly can.
- Bashar -
In the recognition that you have never been this ‘You’ before, and you will never be this ‘You’ again, this life only have one life to live, the purpose of this life is to be this ‘You’ as fully as you possibly can. To do what excites you the most. Ask yourself, “What excites me the most?” And at any given moment do the most exciting thing that you are capable of doing something about.
What’s the meaning of life is like asking what’s the meaning of consciousness?
The only possible answer would be, Consciousness Is. That’s all.
Keeping life meaningless, colorless.
Since there is no true meaning, being meaningless is at least being honest about. Nobody could tell you the meaning of life. Let life be colorless. Let it be meaningless.
There is no need to be afraid of it. It is a beautiful blank canvas. Is up to you to put a meaning or keep it colourless. Rather of being afraid of this colorlessness, and force some color into it, maybe there is no need for that, maybe you can just be without a reason. Is beautiful.
Meaninglessness is the door to the divine.
What is the fear behind the meaning of life?
What is the meaning of life? There is no meaning.
Everything we do, every identity we create in life, is in fear of the fact that our lifetime has no meaning. Fear that nothing really matters and living is futile.
But as you come to terms with this necessary truth, you truly can take an existential view and live every moment as you please, in gratitude and choose whatever costume you like.
