What's the meaning of life? What do we live for?

[Tyler Robinson]

Question for contemplation. 

 

[Moksha]

I like Aldous Huxley's summary.

The Perennial Philosophy appears in every age and civilization:

There is an infinite, changeless reality beneath the world of change

This same reality lies at the core of every personality

The purpose of life is to discover this reality experientially, that is, to realize God while here on earth

The meaning of life is a highly personal and subjective question, and different people may have different answers. For some, the purpose of life may be to seek happiness and fulfillment, to achieve success and make a positive impact on the world, or to follow a certain set of beliefs or values. Others may see the meaning of life as a deeper, more spiritual quest to connect with a higher power or to find inner peace and enlightenment. Ultimately, the meaning of life is something that each individual must discover for themselves.

A human didn't write that.

The meaning of life is to discover it has no meaning, and you are as free as a bird.

Life is a Play. So Act.

[Gesundheit2]

Basically, water, food, and sex. Then piss, poop, and repeat.

This is awesome!

Not the text, obviously. But what it might indicate.

It's either that AI turned out to be just a hippy at the of the day, or that hippies are actually just bots in the first place.

I'm very comfortable, and actually quite happy in both cases. I treat hippies as bots anyways.

I think our creator wants us to use the minds and bodies that we were given. It wants to see who's the best at using their mind and body. It likes to see rhinos fight with lions. It likes to see humans fight each other. Your job is basically to entertain and impress god to the best of your ability. 

[NoSelfSelf]

If you dont have meaning then your lifes meaning is to find meaning

[Dioxide2533]

We live to survive and reproduce because that's what we are programmed for.

There is no meaning/significance to life, except for fairy tails, that we invent to try to make ourselves feel better.
