From scientific and philosophical points of view, the definition and concept of the meaning of life imply the presence of certain objectives of the existence, individual and general purpose of man.
The meaning of being is the basis of the worldview, which determines the entire path of the development of the moral and moral appearance of people.
In philosophy
In most cases, the meaning of life is perceived and positioned philosophical problem. The philosophers of antiquity wrote that the secret of human existence is itself itself, and, trying to know himself, he recognizes the surrounding space. There are several historically recognized points of view on the problem of meaning:
- The followers and receivers of Socrates said: "I am ashamed to die, not aware of the forces of your spiritual and bodily." Epicur, exploring the theme of human death, called not to be afraid of her, because the fear of death in essence is irrenine: when death comes, there is no man no longer. However, oddly enough, the attitude towards death significantly affects the attitude towards life and determines it.
- The problem of the meaning of life was also actively discussed in the philosophy of Kant. In his opinion, a person in itself is the goal of the highest value, he is a personality and the only creature on the planet, able to independently dispose of his life, pursue any goals and achieve them. The great philosopher said that the meaning of a person's life is not outside, but in the inside of him: at the same time, the defining factor is the idea expressed through moral laws and debts. Kant also tried to describe what "meaning". In his opinion, the meaning cannot exist independently, as a matter of reality, he is in the consciousness of people and he also defines their behavior, forcing voluntarily to obey the laws of morality and thereby putting the person to the step above the rest of the living beings on the planet. Those, from the point of view of Kant, the purpose of a person is expressed in stock of a certain worldview, or religion. At the same time, religion, as an explanation of the emergence of our world, Kant denies - its significance is that it is the basis for the development of human morality.
- Cant's philosophy received further development and other German classics. According to Fichte, the search for the meaning of human life on Earth is the main task of any philosophical doctrine. Comprehension of meaning is the complete agreement of the personality with himself, which is expressed in the freedom of man, reasonable activities, development. Developing and becoming a free and sensible person, a person changes and improves the surrounding reality.
Throughout the history of philosophy and religion, attempts were made to find universal, suitable for everyone, the meaning of human being.
Religion calls for a person to prepare himself to "life after death", because it is outside the "biological" existence and a real life begins. From the position of virtue, the answer to the question: "Why do we live?" Obvious: To make good deeds and serve the truth. In addition to religious representations, the point of view is widespread, which sees the goal and the meaning of a person's life in obtaining physical and moral pleasures and the opposite, which presents the suffering and death target.
In psychology
Psychology also did not bypasify an extremely relevant dilemma - why a person lives on Earth. I search for solving the problem of "What is the meaning of a person's life" is actively engaged in at least two directions in psychology:
- The notorious psychologist and philosopher Viktor Frankon worked for a long time on the creation of his own school focused on studying a person's search for what to live. According to Frankl, the goals for the achievement of true purpose are addressed by a person, make it more conscious, reasonable and morally healthy. As a result of his research, the psychologist wrote a book: "A man in search of the meaning of life." This work contains answers to the most common questions about the search for meaning, discloses in detail this topic and offers three ways to achieve it. The first way is aimed at comprehending the purpose of existence through labor activity and bring it to the ideal; The second way is the experience of feelings and emotions, which themselves are meaning; The basis of the third is to acquire experience through the passage on the life path of suffering, pain, anxiety and the struggle with earthly adversity.
- Psychology was also actively engaged and engaged in the study of the meaning of human life in an existential direction or logotherapy. This direction calls a man being not knowing why and why he came to this world and his goal is to find this knowledge. Therefore, the center of the logotherapy is psychological aspect This process. And people have only two ways - either, despite possible failures and disappointments, look for their calling, respond to their actions, try, experiment; Either - to surrender at the very beginning of its path and his life will pass, and without touched by awareness.
Forms
The goals and meaning of human existence are rarely universal for life or concluded in the same thing. Most often, they change with age, internal changes in personality; or under the influence of external circumstances. For example, in adolescence and youthful age, the solution of the problem - what is the meaning of life - will be: getting education and the necessary skills for the start of work; After 25 years, the most common answers - the creation of the family, building a career, improving the material conditions of existence. Closer to the retirement age, when life becomes more meaningful, people are puzzled by the issues of spiritual development and religion. For some people, the problem of meaning is solved by means of a hobby, in which a person is implemented in parallel with the objectives listed above. In the latter case, the life of such people is more filled with and bright, because in parallel they reach several goals and are not very dependent on one, and therefore, it is easier to experience possible disappointments and obstacles that are able to comprehend them and move on.
Birth and education of children is one of the most common types of life goals and meaning of life.
The birth of a child leads to the fact that most of The attention of the parents focuses on it: they earn to ensure their child the best, try to give a good education, Help B. hard periods, instill the correct lifestyle. Most moms and dads try to raise their children properly, to press them the desire to live according to the principles of justice and high morality. And if it succeeds, parents believe that the life path is not in vain, he had the meaning to leave his decent continuation on Earth.
Leave the trail on Earth - an already rare version of the acquisition of meaning. Most often, people who have any rare talent are capable of. These are great scientists, artists, representatives of the royal, noble and other clans, famous managers, etc. However, not everything is so sad.
Leave your mark on Earth can a person who does not have a very bright talent, but hardworking, persistent and purposeful, who lives, understanding and presenting what could be the meaning of his life.
For example, this is an educator that puts the soul in its wards, or a doctor who has undermined a lot of people, a carpenter, through his work, the improvement of people, an athlete, possibly not possessing bright abilities, but every day all the best results, etc.
The problem of achieving meaning in the Society of High Technologies
In the modern world, humanity lives in an accelerated pace and spends a lot of emotional and physical resources to maintain the standard of living. We rarely manage to stop and think about what the meaning of human life is. Society and progress require to match fashion, specific standards, format of relationships between people. A person is likened to squirrel in a wheel making thousands of monotonous, brought to the automatism of movements; He does not have time to think about what he wants himself and what he lives for.
Modernity is characterized by everyday pursuit of the illusion, fake ideals. Culture of consumption does not allow developing spiritually, moral side modern man It becomes less developed, landed and primitive; A miracle of life turns into ordinary existence.
Naturally, people have become more often susceptible to diseases. nervous system, depression, hysteria and chronic fatigue. The number of suicides over the past decades has grown several times. Human meaning has become an expensive luxury.
However, for people of the strong spirit, persistent and sustainable social influences, capable of thinking - progress opens up new opportunities for self-development and improvement of the world. Now it is much easier to gain knowledge contributing to the search for goals and meaning; easier to promote their own own ideas: For them they will not be told on the gallop and will not burn at the bore; Technological capabilities allow you to create and build new objects and objects. We live in a relatively quiet period and the desire to maintain peaceful relationships, carefully treat nature, find compromises and spiritually grow and there is a goal and meaning of human life.
Introduction
Great philosophers - such as Socrates, Plato, Descartes, Spinosa, Diogenes and many others - had clear ideas about what life "best" (and, therefore, and most of all meaningful) and, as a rule, they associated the meaning of life with The concept of good. That is, in their understanding, a person must live for the benefit of other people. He must leave the contribution after himself.
From my point of view, people who have brought significant benefit of others are writers such as Pushkin, Lermontov, Bulgakov and many others, these are scientists such as Einstein, Pavlov, demikhov, hippocrates and others. But this does not mean that we simple people And not the great minds do not bring the benefit to others.
The question "On the meaning of life" worries and torments in the depths of each person's soul. A person can for a while completely forget about him, immersed with his head in care, to work, in material concerns about the preservation of life, about wealth. I think on this issue There is no definite answer, but there are many different opinions. And their abundance is explained by the fact that different people in their lives pursue different goals.
In his essay, I will consider various opinions about the meaning of life on Earth, and in conclusion I will write what the meaning of life is for me.
The meaning of human existence.
Ancient Greek philosopher and academic-encyclopedist Aristotle, for example, believed that the purpose of all human actions is happiness (Eudaimonia), which is to implement the essence of a person. For a person whose essence is a soul, happiness is thinking and knowledge. Spiritual work thus has an advantage over physical. Scientific activity And art classes are the so-called diagonetic virtues, which are achieved through the subordination of passions of the mind.
I have to some extent agree with Aristotle, because it really lives life in search of happiness, and most importantly, when you are internally. But on the other hand, when you completely dedicate yourself to art or a little profitable science and you will not have money for normal clothes, good food, and because of this you will start feeling out of the way, and you will become alone. Is this happiness? Someone will say no, and for someone it is really the joy and meaning of existence.
German philosopher of the XIX century Arthur Schopenhauer defined a person's life as a manifestation of some world will: people seem to come by own willingBut in fact they drive someone else's will. Being unconscious, the world will is absolutely indifferent to their creations - people who are thrown by it on the arbitrariness of accidentally emerging circumstances. According to Schopenhauer, life is a hell in which a fool travels for pleasures and comes to disappointment, and a sage, on the contrary, tries to avoid troubles through self-restraint - a wise living person is aware of the inevitability of disasters, and therefore bores his passions and puts the limit to his desires. The life of a person, in Schopenhauer, is a constant struggle with death, incessant suffering, and all the efforts to free themselves from suffering lead only to the fact that one suffering is replaced by others, whereas the satisfaction of the main life needs turns into only saturation and boredom.
And in the interpretation of the life of Schopenhauer, there is some truth. Our life is a constant struggle for survival, and in the modern world it is very "fighting without rules for a place under the sun." And if you do not want to fight and become anyone, she will give you away. Even if you minimize desires (to be, where to sleep and eat) and measure with suffering, then what is life? Purely take and live in this light by a person whom the legs will wipe. No, it's not the meaning of life in my opinion!
Speaking about the meaning of human life and death, Sartre wrote: "If we have to die, our life does not make sense, for its problems remain unresolved and remains uncertain to the importance of problems ... Everything is born without a reason, continues in weakness and dies by chance ... absurd That we were born, absurd that I die. "
It can be said that on Sarter there is no sense of life, because sooner or later we are all die. I did not agree with him, because if you follow his worldview, then why live at all, it's easier to commit suicide, but it's not so. After all, each person holds a thin thread holding it in this light, even if its existence in this world is disgusting. We all know perfectly well about such a category of people like homeless people (people, without a certain place of residence). Many were once wealthy people, but they were raised or were deceived, and for the gullibility paid to everyone, well, there are many other reasons why they have come to such a lifetime. And every day for them is a lot of problems, tests, flour. Some do not stand and still leave this world (with their own help), but others find the strength to live on. Personally, I believe that a person can say goodbye to life only when he does not see the meaning.
Ludwig Witgensteinwees in personal life may make sense (importance), but life itself does not make any meaning of these things. In this context, it is said that someone's personal life makes sense (important for itself or others) in the form of events that occur throughout this life, and the results of this life in terms of achievements, inheritance, families, etc.
After all, to some extent it really is. Our life is important for our loved ones, for those people who love us. There may be only a few them, but we realize that we need someone on this white light, for someone important. And for the sake of these people we live, feeling necessary.
It seems to me that it is also worth seeking a look for the meaning of life also in religion. Because it is often assumed that religion is the answer to the human need to stop feeling the condition of confusion or fear of death (and the accompanying desire does not die). Determining the world outside of life (spiritual world), these needs are "satisfied", providing meaning, purpose and hope for our (otherwise meaningless, amelessly and end) lives.
I would like to consider it from the point of view of some religions.
And I want to start with Christianity. The meaning of life is in the salvation of the soul. Independent Being is only God, everything exists and is comprehended only in continuous communication with the Creator. However, not everything in this world makes sense - there are meaningless, irrational actions. An example of such a deed is, for example, the betrayal of Judas or his suicide. Thus, Christianity teaches that one act can desten to the whole life. The meaning of life is the intention of God about a person, and it is different for different people. It can be disturbed only washing the false dirt of lies and sin, but it is impossible to "invent".
"I saw a frog buffalo and said:" I also want to become a buffalo! "Bulk, poured and burst into the end. After all, God has made a frog, and whom the buffalo. And the frog wrote: I wanted to become a buffalo! Well, burst! Let everyone rejoice in how his Creator did. " (The words of the elder Paisius Svyatogort).
The meaning of the earthly stage of life is in the acquisition of personal immortality, which is only possible through the personal touch of the sacrifice of Christ and the fact of His Resurrection, as if "through Christ."
Vera She gives us the meaning of life Goal, the dream of a happy afterlife. Let us hard and bad now, but after death at that time and moment, when she was appointed to us by fate, we will find eternal paradise. Each in this world carries its test. Everyone finds its meaning. And everyone should remember the "purity of spiritual".
From the point of view of Judaism: the meaning of life of any person consists in serving the Creator, even in the most everyday affairs - when a person eats, sleeps, sends natural needs, executes married duty - he must do this with the thought that she cares about the body - for To be able to serve the Creator with full self-dedication.
The meaning of a person's life is to facilitate the establishment of the kingdom of the Most High over the world, the disclosure of his light for all peoples of the world.
Not everyone will see the meaning of existence only in constant ministry to God, when every moment you first think about yourself, but that you have to marry, grow a bunch of kids, just because God ordered.
From the point of view of Islam: special relation between man and god - "presenting yourself to God", "Submissions to God"; The followers of Islam - Muslims, that is, "devotees". The meaning of the life of Muslim is to worship the Almighty: "I did not create jinn and people to bring me any benefit, but only to worship me. But worship brings them the same favor. "
Religions are prescribed rules if you live on them if you are conquered God and fate means that you have the meaning of life.
The meaning of the life of a modern man
Modern society, of course, does not impose the meaning of life to his members and it is an individual choice of every person. At the same time, modern society offers an attractive goal that is able to fill a person's life to meaning and give him strength.
The meaning of the life of a modern person is a self-improvement, education of decent children who must surpass their parents, the development of this world as a whole. The goal is to turn a person from the "screw", the application object external power In the Creator, Demiurga, the builder of the world.
Anyone embedded in modern society is the creator of the future, a participant in the development of our world, in perspective - a participant in creating a new universe. And no matter where he is working - moves the economy forward in private firm Or teaches children at school - his work and contribution is needed for development.
The consciousness of this fills life with meaning and makes his work well and conscientiously - for the benefit of yourself, other people and society. This allows you to realize your own significance and a single goal that set itself Modern people, feel involved in the highest achievements of humanity. Yes, and just feel like a carrier of a progressive future - it is already important.
Yes indeed - good question. What is the meaning of this life?
And you know, in this article we will give you an accurate answer to this question!
Only he will be at the end of the task. Remember how in the textbook on algebra at school?
That's just we have to warn you immediately !!!
After reading this article, your life can change by 180 degrees!
Yes Yes exactly!
Think, you just need this answer? Are you sure to hear it?
If not or you are not sure, then feel free to close this page and go further somewhere in Google or Yandex to read there hundreds of other articles that the meaning of life is in children!
For those who have already read before this place, let's say right away: the meaning of life is not in children!!
The last phrase can be emphasized and allocate fat !!!
Why? Let's explain a little later ...
So what is the meaning of a person's life? BUT...?
Why this is all this: work on which you need to get up every morning on alarm clock, some goals, plans, loans, constant lack of time, stress, traffic jams, metro, family, children, medicines and headaches?
Why is it all necessary? What is the meaning of such a lifetime?
Where are you going? What are you striving for? You are having broken my head into the future at a speed of 200 km / h, not noticing how your real events are accessed outside the window. And you lack time to even breathe fragrance of flowers?
Credits, suppliers, contracts, partners, kickbacks, taxes ... And now the alarm clock Sutra is ringing! Dzhin-Dzin! Climb! And again, they walked pictures from life at the rate of 200 frames per second. And somewhere now the sun gets up, noise with surf, shouting seagulls and the air still smells the morning cool!
Or do you have an emptiness ahead? All the paints of your life have long been erased. And you live only in thoughts about the past ... I am experiencing old resentment, mental pain, treason, slowly fading from the lack of love, warmth, care, understanding ... Sorry about the opportunities, accusing your fate and other people who made you such such ? Such is probably fate, you say to yourself.
So what is the meaning of life then?
Why live at all?
After all, every year wrinkles on the face becomes more and more, and why the person lives, in which the meaning of his life, no one has explained.
Well, okay, enough already get lost in guess, picking up in your past, thoughts, experiences!
From now on, you can start smiling! Like this: :))))))))
Just what you were looking for!
To begin with, let's wonder the wrong answers!
Although, probably, 99% of people, the question "what is the meaning of life," will answer this way, because they also do not know what he is! :))
Wrong answer number 1
The meaning of life is in children!
And why not in the children, you ask!
Yes, because!
Think: Masha had a small daughter. And Masha decided to call his daughter Katya. Beautiful name! But before the birth of Kati, Masha had no meaning of life. No one! More precisely, he was: to give birth to Katya. All 35 years old Masha lived only in order to give birth to Katya. And now, finally, she has the meaning of life: grow and raise his beloved daughter (or son as you like). But what will happen when Katya will grow? When she is already 21 years old and she will finally say: "Mom, well, enough already! I'm not small ..." Masha will lose the meaning of his life again!
It turns out that way.
The saddest thing is that for most such masses, for which the meaning of life is children, and happening. After their child grows, their life becomes aimless and dreary again.
But the nature was so conceived that sooner or later Katya and Vasya would grow and leave the parental home to start building their own independent life!
And if their mother (or dad) is at this point, will not find the right, natural answer to the question "what is the meaning of my life," will continue to "cling" for their children, try to control their lives without having his own!
And if you continue this chain, then Katya will also think as well as Masha: I have to give birth to a child, because in this sense of my life. And then the story will repeat!
Night, Street, Pharmacy Lantern ... Pharmacy, Street, Lantern ...
Because not in the children's sense of human life!
A child is only a tactical (intermediate) target, but not the main, strategic one.
Although most people, not knowing what the main goal of their life, put a child's place for this!
Wrong answer number 2
Yes, what's the difference in what the meaning of life!
Do not worry. Just live and do not think about it!
And what, too, option! Indeed, what is the difference in the meaning of the life of a person!
Live yourself and live! You will die, then there can be the guys with white wings on top, and finally, and in what the meaning was. And put a test or nonsense ... Well, as in the institute, remember? :) And then they will send back to the ground, but in another body, in a new embodiment, in new family... to some pops in the jungle. And everything again in a new one: again born, shout, suck the tits, learn to walk ... And then, one day, when the sun stand in the zenith, warming up the earth with his warm rays, you will devourous for some satellite tiger in the bushes Where you moved down the little. And again on the sky, Welcome to Heaven, in the adoptive commission with its battle from the past incarnation of the backup! Just a circle of samsara some kind!
So what's the joke? Can anyone explain? And then he was tired of there, and here ... how much did the bodies changed, was and a man and a woman, how much did it moved on this earth for many centuries, and as he was a fool, and remained! Ay, guys in white coats, and what is the meaning of life?
Well, finally, I thought to ask! And you type in Google "What is the meaning of life," they will answer your thoughts in your head .. Find the article "To the meaning of a person's life." And read. Read attentively! Until the very end. If he has not yet understood for so many lives, in which the point is. There you will explain everything in the human language. And, maybe this time, when you get back from the ground to us with our backup, we will put the firm 4-ku instead of zeros and units for past lifestyle.
Wrong answer number 3
The meaning of human life \u003d power, sex and money.
Well, here for such selected senses of life, just put zeros (0) and units (1) in the heavenly office of Angels in white coats. Simply kindergarten Some! She rushed his ego called Personality, playing the illusion of his power over the world, well, or the authorities over 5 wipers from HOA. Who has what power ... Small, medium and big business. Politics. 20 years built his empire, and then the power changed and everything crumbled as a card house for several months. And if this business was the whole sense of life, then, in fact, and there is no need to live! Alcohol, malice, accident ... and write off the consumption in the count again!
Knock Knock? Can? Hello, Office! I came again (a) to you with my backup. Something some unsuccessful incarnation turned out. Somewhere I acted again!
The conversation can be approximately:
But the hints were! Well, if you remember. Do you remember?
Do not go here, the Baska snow will fall, you will be completely dead. Do not sign this contract, bad it smells, do not start this case, look it's better here ... It is much more promising and more profitable.
But not! I said, I decided so, I want it, I will achieve this at any cost ...
And we told you, suggested, but you do not hear ...
Your personality, your ego went out that it seems to you that it is you. That there is nothing else. That only your personal will, your personal plans and your personal goals determine your life.
And if we say you that you have your owner invisible, your boss?
No, not the one that splashes saliva, anger and discontent screamed every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. (By the way, this earthly office boss did it, too, because he does not know what the meaning of his life).
We are about your spirit! And his tasks of incarnation on earth through your physical body And your identity!
Well, what are you looking at us again with such aspiring eyes, as and 125 years ago, when did you pass the past test?
To explain?
Well, we explain on the human, understandable to you!
With pictures, like in comics!
And no longer tell us that I did not understand.
And here is the answer at the end of the task!
The correct answer to the question is: "What is the meaning of a person's life?"
But for starters, let's deal with who this person is.
There is a physical shell, a material object of a dense plan for the existence of matter. Hands, legs, head, stomach, lungs, straight intestine, bones and heart.
But what distinguishes the dead from the living?
It seems like the same set of organs. But something is missing in this set.
And what is missing, can you answer?
Right! The souls, or rather a thin-material object that is joined with a physical body (biological carrier) throughout life.
And soul or spirit? What's the difference. Let's deal with how it is interconnected.
The human body is surrounded by an energy shell (in another aura or biopole). These are the objects of the Astral Plan of the existence of matter. On the human aura (biofield), it is possible to highlight the zones of energy condenses that are called chakras. Their 7 pieces.
The human energy membrane is enclosed in a cocoon of an emotional shell, which feeds the energy. Therefore, the more often a person is rejoicing, the more dense and more its energy shell and the less he is sick, since there is a direct relationship of human health and density, the size of its energy membrane. "Jupiter, you're angry, then you are wrong."
What is a person?
Physical and energy membrane
On video: Vyacheslav Gubanov - Rector of the International Institute of Social Ecology
Emotional sheath of man
Next, after the emotional shell, the intellectual and software shell structures go. We will analyze their functions in another article. Yes, by the way, the state of energy, any chakral distortion can be measured. And we teach this in our scientific direction "Infosomatika".
It looks like this:
Development of the International Institute of Social Ecology.
Any material object extends to the outer space with the final speed of C. Well, you may, remember from the course of school and institutional physics, who visited it :) Einstein described it in his theory of relativity. What does the theory of relativity and the meaning of a person's life, you ask. The answer is next.
So, the physical body and finely material shell structure of a person spreads in outer space at a speed of S. A along the theory of relativity In this case, the material object loses its dimensions in the direction of the distribution axis. Those. All this thing is degenerated into the disk.
But the man's soul looks like:
This is a set of disks (human states) for each quantum of lived time from the point of birth. All stresses are recorded in it, all human emotions.
And it can be measured! Yes, yes, you did not hear. The human soul is the object of the mental plan of the existence of matter - can be measured!
What we do regularly when someone comes to consult with their problems. We remove the characteristic of the mental body and we are looking for all stress in the past that affect the present person and help him "turn off", rewrite in your past on the line of life.
It looks like this:
So what is the meaning of life something?
But what ...
The soul, the mental body of a person, spreads over the surface of the Spirit. The spirit is the object of the following order, it belongs to the causal plan for the existence of matter. It recorded information about past embodiments of a person, about the experience of all past lives.
He looks like this:
This is the same dub that they look in the heavenly office of spherical objects of the causal plan of the existence of matter and above, which some are called angels. We call them curators. Because they constantly oversee the embodied man and give him tips. That's just a question, whether he hears them or cling only for his personality: I, I, I, the head of the homing ... :)
Spirit, by the way, can also be measured. Not a ruler, of course!
Find in it control stresses and programs, both in the current embodiment (soul) and in the past. By the way, half a person can change from incarnation to the embodiment. Many problems of sexual self-identification are associated with this, when the person's consciousness still hears its previous embodiment, but is already in the biological carrier of the opposite sex.
So what is the meaning of a person's life!
In order for the current embodiment to accommodate as much as possible of his spirit as possible and as much as possible, its surface at the expense of positive emotions from tasks / problems arising on the road life of a person. The Spirit is the most important thing that is invisible, which leads a person in life, helps and protects him or, on the contrary, splits on the pope! And to spank him accounted for oh, how often. Because otherwise a person does not hear, more precisely does not want to hear.
After all, many begin to think, turn on the head and change only when they get bad!
After all, you also found this article, probably not lying on the beach with a cocktail in hand.
Hello you from your spirit! :))
Well, now to the answer, what is the meaning of the life of a person, you can add new question... it sounds like this: And how free the will of man!
The will of a person is free in the framework of his spirit of combat mission!

Welcome to you about an inquisitive mind! Before raking the monumental questions A la: "What is the meaning of a person's life?", "How to find the meaning of life?" Or "Is there a meaning of life at all?", Let's understand what unites us all.
What is the meaning of man's life
Someone or something to fame worked out, inventing us so much disrescribe to each other, but in one thing this was clearly attempted slightly, namely in human need to strive for something. Yes, each person is unique, but there is not a single life in which there would be no dream, desires, and goals, because we are all moving somewhere in our existence, it is important for us to achieve something, none of us want to live in vain .
On the need for self-realization
Why is this happening? When creating a new life, the Universe gives a person a set of resources, usually the kit includes a pair of legs and arms, a brain, a bouquet personal qualities, some stray character, a number of basic skills, well, the very life itself.
Taking it all from the shelves and solemnly handing you, the universe voices only one short wish: " It's yours, please use it somehow».
So we smoothly approached the main need of a person, which is based on everything. This is about need to realize yourself, reveal your potential. The desire to achieve something uniting us and come somewhere - this is the thirst to satisfy the need for self-realization.
Perhaps here you are having fun in your hands with a joyful exclamation: "Hurray, now I know what the meaning of man's life is!" - Do not hurry with conclusions. The need to realize yourself is the same need as the need for a dream or food, self-realization is just part of our existence.
Is there any sense of life
The global joke is that there is no sense of life. There is not even the concept of such as "purpose". The universe when creating life does not ask the question, what this life should pour out. It is logical, because by having assigned to each person from the start of any particular meaning of existence, the universe deprives us of two things that we also provide, - the rights of choice and freedom.
This concept, to put it mildly, looks clogging, and the universe can only come in brilliantly, therefore her whole the idea is to provide a man of a landfill for experiments.
You can imagine my life as the land area allocated to you, and the other resources generously granted from the universal shoulder, as the tools with which you can use this site as you will seem as funny.
Want - Spice the garden, you want to build an amusement park, a house, a swimming pool or anything that will be able to visit your bright head. This is the greatness of our existence - we are not limited to how to dispose of themselves and their lives. We are limited only by the fact that somehow dispose of all this should certainly (but this is not a limitation, but, on the contrary, the concept leading to infinity).
The benefit is not that life is long, but in how to dispose of it: may happen, and it often happens that living long lives for a long time.
Lutions Anne Seneca
Why was the most sense invented
Idea with the meaning of life - entirely and completely human invention, and the invention is ingenious, if you understand its essence.
To start a little bit of terminology, we already know that the only wishes of this world for us is to implement themselves. This desire sits in us so deeply that we have built a strategy that allows you to disclose our potential.
The essence of the strategy is to streamline all your life, bringing everything in it to one more or less specific idea, in the direction of which you need to move. In this way, the meaning of life is an idea that allows you to realize yourself.
Meaningless life - terrible
Senselessly live life never ends well. Live aimless much easier - this does not oblige anything, but also does not lead to anything. Without a response to the question "What is the meaning of my life?" The person cannot send and use his energy.
The presence of the meaning is incomparably focusing that it allows some of us truly monumental things. That is why the article about that was mentioned about one ultimate idea in which all actions should be dried.
When a person does not know what pier he holds the way, for him no wind will be passing.
Lutions Anne Seneca
The desire to be significant
Everyone wishes something to mean something, you have to feel anyone who does not need anyone on this planet. Meaning allows you to give our life weight, Significance, because by implementing yourself any idea, you dramatically begin to make importance in your eyes and in the eyes of the world as a whole.
Interest in life
Another important argument in favor of the genius of the invention under the name "meaning of life" is that the presence of this idea in the mind supports our interest in life. Life is interested in us exactly until we need something in it, and when there are no more ideas in the mind - our growth stops and death comes.
Answer to the question about the sense
All this is certainly very cool, but one critical question remains about, and what specifically it is necessary to create on that very land platform or in other words: "What is the meaning of my life?".
Nowhere has no answer to this question, it does not exist not that in the Internet, it is not in nature, for nature and did not think of some particular meaning for us, as we have already found out. Nature gave us the opportunity to choose any meaning independently.
Although we are unable to give you a specific answer, we can provide information that will help in your quest and will understand how to find the meaning of life.
How is the process of implementing yourself
If any meaning of life is a way to realize yourself, it means that we need to understand how the process of implementing a person itself occurs. It is based on five basic principles, on the basis of them, we all live.
Some people are well aware of these principles, which allows them to realize themselves in the most efficient way, others do not realize and still follow the same principles subconsciously, although this approach is much less effective.
Excellent, intrigue is created, time to open the cards.
Development
As soon as the men's cell is successfully found with the female, announcing the beginning of a new life, - from this moment the constant development of a person begins in all aspects of life. Especially in the first years 15, this process is striking, a person visually undergoes serious changes, and in the intellectual plan develops by a giant pace. , forcing us to develop with him.
Any human achievement - the result of long developmentOtherwise, we would here all from the first minutes of life without much difficulty were able to give out something ingenious, but any really worthwhile result is achieved in the protracted process of obtaining skills, knowledge and practices. To make something similar, you need to grow about who you are now.
Search
Is it worth saying that the most popular resources on the Internet are search enginesin which we all are looking for information.
Life never becomes for a person unequivocal, understandable or simple just because the implementation process implies a search that is impossible if all the desired information will already be on hand.
The need to search in an attempt to know the world and supports our interest in life. Any interest or curiosity that arise in us is the desire to find something, which means we are looking for every day.
Another search idea is self-knowledge. Every person is wildly interested to know what he represents And what looks like.
There is no striving more natural than the desire for knowledge.
Michelle de Monten.
Creature
The ability to create is the greatest privilege of a person. Take any citizen who left a trace in history, and see what he managed to legate there because he created something ambitious for his life.
Some of them created ingenious music or a film, someone invented the wheel, and someone created equality between black and white people.
Creating is the process of building a land plot with the help of the tools available on the hands. Implement yourself and at the same time do not create anything - it is impossiblebecause the potential disclosure itself implies the extraction of resources from itself and invest in your idea - during these manipulations inevitably creates something.
Probably, every child, hesitated to the constant invasion of this world in his life, dreamed just to stay on the planet alone. We invite you to present this picture as much as possible.
Imagine that right now on the planet there is no longer anyone left, there is not a single person. How long will it be fun to stay in such a world? We assure that it is not long, and that's all because each of us needs to serve.
What is distinguished by successful man From the rest? - He shares with the world the best thing that he has, contributes. An influential person does not make his talent or supernormality, but how much the benefit is all brings for other people. Detailed analysis Flights on the need to share has already passed the article about.
The life of a separate person makes sense only to the extent that it helps to make the lives of other people are more beautiful and noble.
Albert Einstein
The element of ministry in a person's life was not invented by chance. On Earth, everything seeks unity, and the ministry is our way to create unity in our ranks. Only thanks to other people, we have the opportunity to show themselves and feel their significance. Look at our world, we constantly use someone's services and each of us has some kind of services to others. Anyone has his surroundings with which he interacts daily.
Of all five principles, this is the most non-intelligence, because we were too fascinated by the separation of ourselves from the rest and became disassembled. The distance between people is now too large: We divided the planet to countries, invented religions, subcultures, families, social statuses And a bunch of other factors - all this in order for everyone to determine itself in some category. To come to the idea of \u200b\u200bserving, being in this position, not very simple.
Love
Love is a thrill with which the designer collects his new car, or the return with which the titled athlete is trained, or zeal, with whom the director takes off his film. In this context, under the "love" you can understand the hellish and irresistible desire to do something.
Implementing yourself is a way long in life, a reactive driving force is needed to go through this way, and love looks great in this role. Inability to do what you love and is one of the main reasons.
Without love, nothing can be wonderful, because all the most essential is always created with love and thanks to love.
Misconception about the meaning of life
AT modern society There are several well-established opinions regarding the meaning of life. These are the ideas that many of us believe, but they completely fall out of the concept of implementing themselves, which we are talking about here. Let's look for them more detail so that someone does not make an inappropriate choice.
Life is the meaning of life
"What is the meaning of man's life? "You have life - live, just be, in this, there is your great meaning," here is the traditional understanding of this idea, and, alas, we often live with her.
We return to the metaphor where life is a land area highlighted by a person. What a deep meaning is laid in this platform and can it be in principle if it is not used in any way, is not implemented, not being built up?
Life is just a space, within which you can prove yourself, It may not be meaning, but is a resource that allows any meaning to implement.
The idea to make life the meaning of life is very convenient for humanity, since it is very easy for her, in short, in short, no, nothing needs to follow, nothing forces you to moveYou just exist and that's it. Apparently, therefore, this idea is so popular, but approximately as mediocre, because it does not allow a person to reveal himself.
Life is one, you need to take everything from it
This idea is another option to understand the thought that life is the meaning. If you imagine that life is only one, it means that the right to make a mistake in a person in it simply no, because another chance is not provided to you.
It's funny, but here we are in the desire to "take everything" are still mistaken at the start. The implementation of yourself is not to "take everything", but "search in yourself, to extract the found and give it to love" - These are two fundamentally different ideas.
Therefore, any desire to accumulate more money, cars, houses, or something else without thought about how you use it for the purposes of self-realization - an extremely stupid desire.
A person can have 15 bulldozers, 300 workers in submission and a lot of money, but if, having all this, it does not store the platform, then all the accumulated things will cost them.
Meaning in gaining happiness and success
Among the previous ideas is the most sane, but has one weighty inaccuracy, which lies in the misunderstanding of what happiness and success.
These concepts may not be a purpose of existence, but are usually a consequence of existence with a suitable goal. If a successful sense is chosen and the person moves in its direction, then happiness and success will become a pleasant consequence of this process and the indicator that man is effectively implementing.
The strive is not to succeed, but to ensure that your life makes sense.
Albert Einstein
To find the answer to the question "What is the meaning of a person's life?" It is necessary to represent how the process of gaining the very meaning is happening.
As a man finds sense
Thoughts constantly appear in our minds, among these thoughts there are ideas. Ideas can either not be interested in us, and then we safely let them go, or ideas can interest us, as a result of which the desire appears to implement the idea.
Then we proceed to the study of the ideas you are interested in. The study is a movement towards the idea to understand its depth and significance. If in the process of research, a person begins to realize all the power of the idea, it becomes the meaning of his life. After that, all his being in all of its specifically taken moments will be directed towards the implementation of the meaning found.
When you open up such a monumental idea for yourself, you do not have to think: "Is this sense of my life?" - This question simply does not arise in the head, for a person is all so clear. You do not have long and painfully adjust your life under this idea, the idea itself absorbs you with your head.
In general, the process of gaining any meaning occurs in the same algorithm: idea - Desire - research - gaining meaning.
Follow the desire
The recipe on the topic "How to find the meaning of life" does not exist, because this is an entertaining process of finding and creating a person who cannot be deprived of. But there is one fantastic recommendation - do not ignore your desire.
Desire is a measure of value.
Baltasar Grasian
Desire is what can be boldly to rely on. Our universal plague is that we are under a press of public opinion, our own restrictions, complexes and other garbage by chase most of our desires far away. This explains the harsh reality, in which most of the population is engaged in what does not find much sense and what, frankly, simply does not like. We are too rarely listened to our wishes..
If you have a desire to realize the idea - explore it, move in the direction of this idea, try to evaluate her depth, because the desire arose inside you not by chance, try to understand why this idea hooked you.
When we start to explore our desires - we start looking for truly, and ultimately find. It doesn't matter at all what the idea it will be: to open a coffee shop, make the life of people in a cheerful or blind a snowman in June from the ground.
If you saw in your idea the opportunity to implement yourself and it is clear to you, as among this process, to implement the aforementioned five principles - you will certainly be worth paying attention to your idea, sooner or later with such an approach you will end your life with meaning.
Ask "Why?"
There is one exercise that allows you to approach the answer to the question "What is the meaning of life?". Whatever you do and anyone think, ask you "why?"
For example:
- Why do I go to work? To receive money.
- Why get the money? To ensure yourself necessary and survive.
- Okay, in this case, why do you need to survive?
Or:
- Why do I need this drawback? He makes me stronger.
- Why get stronger? This is the process of my development.
- Good, but why need to develop?
A person who has the meaning of existence in his head, from any initial question will eventually come to his meaning, because in his life everything is aimed at doing this meaning.
Well, if you have not yet decided on your monumental idea, then this exercise Let me find a few thoughts that will be close to it.
The meaning of life is inconvenient
Perhaps you are now thinking that it is not possible to make mistakes in the main way, but it's not entirely clear how to find something unequivocally suitable for life. Here it is necessary to understand that a person is constantly growing and the fact that today it seemed to him the most significant, tomorrow may seem insignificant and give way to a more monumental idea.
This is natural, we literally grow out of one idea and come to another. Even if for years the idea remains the same, the person begins to understand it more fully and wide.
All this is an integral part of the search and development process, therefore, choosing a monumental idea and following your wishes, you should not bother very much about the fact that after some time this idea will lose value. It is important to realize that if the current idea is not investigated, the more global idea will not be able to be discovered at all.And this makes it impossible to disclose our potential.
Summary
Let's squeeze a long story in a few key paragraphs to secure the layer of information that hit you so much.
Home Human need is the need to realize yourself as much as possible.. For this purpose, resources were entrusted to our hands, and we need to understand how to use them.
Initially, no sense of life exists, we ourselves will invent the meaning to get the opportunity to reveal yourself. In view of this information, a specific answer to the question "What is the meaning of a person's life?" Does not exist in nature, we yourself need to create it.
The process of implementing a person is based on five pillars: development, search, creation, ministry and love. Any really worthless meaning of life is always subordinate to these five principles.
In the desire to understand how to find the meaning of life, it is important to listen to your will. The ideas that bind to us the desire definitely should be explored, for among them is what we are looking for.
