Theosis: The True Purpose of Human Life

To experience other than self. Enjoy the show, a living Matrix

Your purpose is to reproduce your species. You are the only self aware life on this planet. Your ability to think/reason has given you quite a good method to live and thrive in this environment. Sadly if also gives, to some, the elevated self worth that we have purpose or a loving god(s) etc.

God is immortal. Man can only attain immortality through grace, Jesus.

Very interesting link. Thank you for posting it. It offers the basis of my personal theology. I didn't know what Orthodox Christianity was all about. This is one more reason to feel so close to Russia and the Greek culture.

But it's not enjoyable?

It's brutal, sad, lonely and scary.

Tasty Russian propaganda. It's what's for breakfast.

So - you're a 'my soul my choice' kind of person.

The pursuit of chocolate?

the universe is merely a nest of unrecognizable machines.

Within the nest are micromachines(microbes, bacteria, viruses)
mediomachines(fauna, humanoids, orbs/whiteholes)
macro machines(star systems, moons, blackholes)

some machines are seemingly organic,
some machines are not.

all of which were assembled by a superior machine. Alpha & Omega

understanding and accepting this,
is the first step in understanding ones true purpose of human life.

The ultimate goal is experience/information

The purpose of life is to move things from one place to another. To shuffle electrons...

the ultimate goal is to spin in harmony forever.

the easiest way to achieve this is imagining the perfect 24 day and living that day over and over.

if you dont move in this universe, you burn

to spark a soul, percieving eternal life.

But not so fast!

Surviving a transcendent challenge to your will to live implicitly assures a transition which sparks an eternal soul.

Seth describes an African mother seeing a lion attack her child.

The transcendent conflict: if she defends him, she may die, the kid dies, and her line ends. If she hides behind the rock, she will live but he will die, but she can create life again. The realization of ones existence in a continuum is the moment one sparks a soul.

interesting read. i just skimmed thru it.

if strictly adhered to, that treatise will not lead you to overcoming death in this life.

it is an effective start, but at some point, you will need to realize the same thing that all sages understand which is that asceticism will only take a man so far and at some point, must be abandoned in order to let go of the pride that comes with the achievements of self discipline.

books like A Course in Miracles will take you all the way there if you follow the instruction closely and sincerely.

it's only a matter of letting go of what is unreal to discover what is real. It does take discipline, but the result isn't pride because you won't gain anything from the true path but instead, you will realize that losing all illusion means simply returning to what you have always been.

Suffer.
Die.
Go to hell.

Thanks OP.

close your eyes, and pretend you are GOD, why would you create all this. The only thing is you, no thing else, nothing to create with or from. Why would you do it, create all this and where would it exist.
