  2. This may help you on the quest you originated.

    It's a page from the Scientology Handbook, which goes over the 8 Dynamics - or urge toward survival - that anyone has in their life.  It might help on this.

  3. This can be quantified a bit more fully.  Mr. David Miscavige gave a speech at the 2004 Scientology Celebrity Centre International Gala which clearly explains Scientology's relation to life.

Themes of existence

You can boil down most if not all religions to three major theories on why and how we got here.

  1. Creationism - God made us and we are here to live our lives till we go back to be with the creator. We are here to live a life which determines what will happen to us in the after-life.

  2. Dreamworld - The God-head is dreaming and manifesting the universe. The purpose of our existence is to experience the dream from our specific viewpoint.
  3. Living Organism - The universe is one whole entity that is growing and evolving which we are a part of. Living our life in harmony with our environment brings us and the universe the greatest good.

Each explanation is a beautiful representation of what we experience as the universe, so no matter what you believe, life is about living and experiencing...life. You are here to live a life, your life. Only you know what is best for you.

Enjoy the journey.

Well said!

I have never thought about it that way.

Enjoying the experience!!, Wow, how simple. If only we all enjoyed the experience, our world would guarantee everyone a great "life".

According to me the main aim of human life is to worship God.Created as Gods vice-gerent over the earth, to obey him, worshipping God should be everyones lifelong aim, rather than accumulating wealth or seeking temporary happiness.People everywhere are asking the questions; "What is the purpose of life?" and "Why are we here?" You might be amazed to learn.Most of those who reflect or think about life in any detail will consider and ponder these questions. There are as many different answers to these questions as there are people asking the questions.Some would hold that the purpose of life was to acquire wealth. Yet suppose they were to acquire millions of dollars, what then would they claim is their purpose after doing so? If the purpose of life is to become wealthy, there would be no purpose after becoming wealthy.The fact is that when people approach their purpose here in this life from the aspect of only gaining wealth, after collecting the money they have dreamed of their lives loose purpose and then they live in restless tension suffering from a feeling of worthlessness.How could wealth then be considered as the aim of life? Could the acquisition of wealth guarantee happiness? Of course not.When we hear of millionaires or members of their families committing suicide, how could we consider the purpose of life would be to gain great wealth?.Those who are in search of truth, having open minds and hearts will recognize this as a message in truth and sincerity. Open your heart and your mind now and ask the Almighty God of the Universe to guide you now to His True Way. And then be ready to accept your true purpose in life.
