Seeking Truths of Life

There are something that will always remain a mystery. There is so much that we don’t know about this world. For example, what was it like before the big bang? How big is the universe or is it endless? What happened before there were no living beings? While scientists are still working on the unknown, it will take a lot more time or maybe we will never find the truth. Things about Godthe journey after death, and before existence is unknown. We all have the curiosity of a cat and want to self-help to know about certain things. 


What do we know?

Life is the piece of existence that processes evaluate, acts, reacts, and evolves through growth (reproduction and metabolism), through a new beginning. The key difference between life and non-life (or non-living things) is that life uses a force, energy, for physical and conscious development. Life is everything that grows and eventually dies, i.e., ceases to flourish and be cognizant. 

 

So, can we say that viruses, for instance, are cognizant? Yes, insofar as they react to the stimulus; but they are alive fundamentally because they reproduce and grow. Computers are non-living for the reason that even though they can cognize, they do not expand biologically (grow), and cannot create offspring. It is not cognition that establishes life, then: it is rather production and maturation towards a state of death; and death happens only to living substances.

 

Questions like ‘what is the meaning (purpose) of life?’ among others to explore 

 

It can be about positively doing common good. There are, of course, many intuitively clear examples of Doing Good: by retrieving a crying baby from a dumpster; or by trying to save somebody who’s drowning. Most of us would keep away from murdering; and most of us would avoid doing some acts that we find instinctively wrong. Going on a spiritual journey o find out the truth may seem a likely way. 

 

Life in the pandemic

 

The pandemic has put a lot of things into perspective. People are learning the value of time, relationships, and life beyond materialistic things. They are starting to believe in the power of nowMany are frustrated as well as there is uncertainty all around. There is a weird sense of darkness about living and earning. Emotional intelligence and patience are tested.

Everyone has a different version of their truth. It may take a whole life or just one incident.

What are the odds?

What are the odds that we were born on this planet? What are the odds that there is life beyond this galaxy? What are the odds of getting the coronavirus again even after the vaccine is made? There are questions that we all crave answers for. While some will answer what you want to hear, the  positive , others will be objectively answering it. Biomedical research habitually focuses on the discovery of relationships (associations) between variables (phenomena or attributes). It is significant to note that association may or may not signify a causal relationship. This depends on numerous factors.    This is the  gift of life   that everyone needs to accept no matter what the answers. You are here and will be here for as long as your life permits.    Coincidence or accident?   Many believe in serendipity, signs, telepathy, things that are beyond our explanation. Some believe in the  power of now .  it is said that there is a w...

What is a Meaningful Life?

Some people seem to spend their whole lives disgruntled, in search of a reason, a  positive   purpose. Philosopher Iddo Landau advocates that all of us have everything we need for a significantly meaningful existence. A meaningful life is one in which there are enough aspects of adequate value, and pointless life is one in which there is not a satisfactory number of aspects of sufficient value.  Simplicity    For a life to be precious, or important, it needn’t have to be unique. Believing that specialness is tied to meaning is another error many people make. This mistaken belief leads some people to unreasonably see their lives as inadequately meaningful and to miss ways of enhancing meaning in life. They forget the  power of now   and this  gift of life .    We move, we meet new kind people, have fresh experiences, bump into new ideas, and age. As we change, our values alter, and so does our sense of purpose in life, which w...
