I would not say that. Rather I prefer to think that the reason why we exist, the meaning of life, is that life is its own meaning. And human life is part of a journey for the one thing that must learn and that is the human soul. The soul is the acculimation of all experiences that happens while on earth, to learn and continue on its journey. There are lessons, some of them fun and pleasent, others not so easy and hard.

That concept is linked to a collective thought - in my terms, when the body reaches an optimal electromagnetic balance, there is a surge of energy that results in an etheric discharge and thus the "bliss" that one experiences.

Contraction makes one feel separate. Boundlessness is oneness experienced.

One day one must admit non-selfcaused guilt.
