The Goal of Life

The Goal of Life: This is what the Dalai Lama had to say about life and it is the best answer I have ever come across.

Dalai Lama: "If I feel a little discouraged, sad or I ask 'What is the meaning of this life?' this verse gives me purpose and inner strength:

So long as space remains,
So long as sentient beings suffering remain,
I will remain,
In order to help, in order to serve...

And when things are okay, and people are praising the Dalai Lama, again this poem helps me: I am nothing but a servant to provide to others. Otherwise you may get like, 'Oh, I'm quite important.' And that creates ignorance and exploitation.

So, if you can provide some happiness, some comfort to others, then your life becomes meaningful. If your life creates problems or suffering to others, then there's no meaning to your existence."
