A list of questions:
what am I doing here?
〰️
what am I doing here? 〰️
Is there a specific purpose I am intended to fulfill?
Is the purpose simply to exist?
Is it to escape the ‘bondage’ of suffering and seek freedom from all systems and conditioning?
To alleviate others’ suffering? To alleviate my own?
To seek joy in every aspect of embodied life?
Is it such a bad thing to be stuck in an eternal cycle of incarnation?
Perhaps there’s no way to influence the cosmic timeline. If it is my time to seek liberation, then I will make choices in service of that goal. If instead it is my time to experience the delusion of maya, then I will not prioritize liberation. What role does individual will play in that equation?
Is there even such a thing?
Is choice real? Or is that another layer of maya?
Does my seek for liberation change based on my gender or biological/cosmic predisposition?
Are we reincarnated into the same timeline? Do we pick up where we left off?
If human life is just a blip in the grand scheme of time, should we reject sense pleasures?
If we endeavor to feel bliss in every sense pleasure, can that lead us to eternal bliss through incarnation?
Or does that endeavor lead freedom from incarnation? Or does it keep us ‘trapped’ there?
Is eternal bliss/oneness ‘better’ than riding the waves of high and low in a dualistic state?
Should we keep the sacred close? Or share it authentically and freely?
Can anyone answer these questions?
