The Purpose Of Life.

Human-being is considered to be the finest creature of God.

மானிடராய்ப் பிறத்தல் அரிதினும் அரிது.​

எண்ணரிய பிறவிதனில் மானிடப் பிறவி தான் ​

அரிதினும் அரிது காண்

இப்பிறவி தப்பினால் எப்பிறவி வாய்க்குமோ ​

யாது வருமோ அறிகிலோம்

Mankind is considered as the supreme creature among the creations of God.Why it so ? What is the reason for this supremacy ?
Because, we, the human -being, has the sixth sense (பகுத்தறிவு ); We only can distinguish between Good & Bad. We can analyze the pros & cons of an action.In spite of being created as a supreme creature, if we still continue to live like other creature, what is the use of our life?
Animals also search for their livelihood : build homes (nest,den etc) ; look after their young ones. If we too do the same things, what is the purpose of our life?It does not mean that you should leave all . The main purpose of our life is remembering God. While doing your duties,you should not forget the Supreme Lord.
Saints & Yogis consider this materialistic world as Maya. Maya means illusion.God only creates this world also.Why HE creates an illusion world? HE wants us to understand the Maya (illusion) with the help of Maya (world) itself. I'd written about this in my last post, You can conquer MAYA with the help of Maya itself -.
Here is another example.
If we want to solve a maths problem, we used to assume the variable whose value to be found as x.For example, to find interest for Principal (P),rate of interest (R) & no of years (N).In this problem, we already know P,N,R & we have to find Interest.Now.we assume Interest as x and applying the formula
x = PNR/100
we calculate the answer. After getting the value,is there any significance for x? x helps us to reach the solution. Thats all.
similarly,Maya ( world) helps us to understand the nature of illusion. After knowing this we should get rid off this illusion and start thinking of God & pray .
