Your goal of life

  

There is an Australian aboriginal wisdom saying sound like this:

“We are all visitors to this

  time, this place.  We are

  just passing through.

  Our purpose here is to

 observe, to learn, to love,

 to grow……, and then we

 return home.”

Now what is the goal of your

life?

Albert Einstein once said:

“If you want to live a happy life,

 tie it to a goal, not people or

 things.”

  

People and things are impermanent, they will change from time to time.

If we are clinging to this, we are destined to suffer.

The one once who loves you very much now not loving you anymore, you suffer!

  

The things that once you owned has no longer yours (may be stolen,may be broken

  or lost), you suffer!

    

When we are leaving this place, nothing we can bring along, not our money, not our propeties, not our status (GM/Dato/Tan Sri/Tun), not our beloved one and not even our very own body.

So it is wise to tie our goal in something that we can bring along. What is the thing we can bring along?

Obviously is the merits or the sin ( collected from doing good

  Deeds/bad deeds ) that we accumulate that we can bring along.

This merits or sin is like the Bonuslink points that we accumulate.

So it is wise to channel our time

and effort on something that worth to pursue:

·       Speak good words

·       Do good things.

·       Have good/kind thoughts.

·       Give a helping hand to those who is needed.

·       Practice diligently according to your faith/believe.

Letting go of:

·       Greed

·       Grudge (ill will)

·       Delusion (false belief)

Example:

I tie my goal in Buddhist Dhamma Path. My meaning of life  is to grow,to serve and to love, then return to Blissful Pure Land.
