Is Karma Yoga the same as Life Purpose?

[Vision]

From Wikipedia: Karma yoga is a path to reach moksha (spiritual liberation) through work. It is rightful action without being attached to fruits or being manipulated by what the results might be, a dedication to one's duty, and trying one's best while being neutral to rewards or outcomes such as success or failure.

 

Life Purpose (Leo’s definition): An overarching mission in life. Your life's work. Something important enough, noble enough, beautiful enough for you to die for. Something you choose to completely commit yourself to.

 

In this way, does your Life Purpose help you reach Enlightenment?

Karma Yoga is an aspect of enlightenment. However, you want to get all the kinds of yoga together to really become enlightened. You even want to go beyond Yoga. Life Purpose is not the same as enlightenment, but can be an aspect of your path. Life purpose is the creation of meaning, where enlightenment is... though multifaceted it is waking up to the truth of what you are. I think both are connected.

Would you say Life Purpose is synonymous to Karma Yoga?

Depends how conscious your life purpose is and how fully you embody it

@Vision Not synonymous but related. Karma Yoga likely goes beyond your life purpose.
