Your Purpose

[BladeRunner]

Finding your purpose in life can't be found in the future and that's why you may have spent years trying to find what to do with your life.

The first part of finding your life purpose is to find your purpose right now. So what is your purpose right now??............To be present right now. Your purpose right now is to read this, when you've finished reading this, your purpose will be the next thing you do and the next thing and the next thing.

Your purpose in life is not to get to the end of your life, look back and see a wonderul life, your purpose is to accept where and what you are right now and place intention into the right now.

Your purpose right now is to accept your inner purpose which is to exist right now. No external event on any level right now, can make your inner purpose corrupted unless you are not grounded in the moment.

Most failure to find your life purpose is rooted inside your denial of being present right now. When you accept the current situation as perfect, no matter how imperfect it may seem, you bring power and purpose to your present moment awareness and then in turn your life.

You've accepted your present moment and there is no more resistance. Then the universe will unfold in a correct and supportive manner that best suits your requirements.

You can tell how present in the moment you are by looking to your life right now. What's going on there? What's not working? Whatever it is, it's directly related to your acceptance of that part of your life right now. If there is turmoil, then there is resistance to what is.

We human beings fight the moment (it's an ego thing) by placing the past and future inside it and then the moment is corrupted and life is a struggle. If you look to your life right now and find things that are working really well, they will be working well with probably very little effort from you.

This is because you have accepted the moment, have no resistance to it and the universe (you) are making things hum along nicely. When we resist the moment, we add fuel to the fire and then we spend time (sometimes years) trying to put it out, but our denial of acceptance is the fuel that burns.

Accepting a bad thing or situation (for human beings) seems to imply weakness. If we don't react, then we are weak and lame and will be at the mercy of others who will take advantage. But it's actually the opposite.

When we are calm and accepting to any situation or person, our inner purpose (acceptance) is our fuel to deal with anything and the answer, solution will reveal itself easily and empower us to act, but to never react.

All the power, all the creation, all the life is with you right now. When you bring acceptance and focus to the moment, no matter how trivial it may seem, your power is present and so are you.

When you are caught up in the past and looking to the future you are like a turbulent ocean, with raging seas. You could through a building into it and it would instantly disappear, but if you ground yourself in the present moment, you are the calm stillness of a perfect pond where you can drop a small rock into and the ripples spread out forever.

Your purpose is to know yourself in this moment, that is your inner purpose and when have your inner purpose, then your outer purpose will reveal itself. It make take a day, it may take 20 years, but your outer purpose will not come until you find and accept your inner purpose.

Your inner purpose is really the only thing you ever have or ever are.......present moment awareness.

PS There's some Tolle and Chopra in the above post. I really like Tolle because if you've ever heard him or read him he's very deep and meaningful, but I really like him, because he bought a lottery ticket and won, that (to me) is hilarious

I agree, you had some Eckhart Tolle and Deepak Chopra in there.

Besides being aware of the moment and being in the NOW, may I also add continuously rediscovering newer aspects and dimensions of yourself through questions such as:-

Who am I?

What do I have?

What can I do?

What do I want?

Why do I want (it)?

What I agree some and disagree some of what bladerunner pointed out:

I agree about being present. It's because we live with the illusion of there are more days to spent, there's a bright future waiting for us. What is happening right now will turn out better.

The fact is it will not turn out better. There's no future. REALLY! Future is just an illusion because we might leave the world in the next hour (sound a bit negative but it's true.) People who died didn't predicted the will get into an accident and die. They also think that they have a future.

To live life to the fullest, we need to appreciate what we have moment by moment. If we didn't did well in the past, forgive yourself and live the way you want RIGHT NOW. If we are not doing well right now, CHANGE IT NOW! There's no someday or future where everything turns out great and you then you only change it.

The purpose of life is not a goal but a direction. If it's a goal, every human being's purpose of life is to die. So, purpose of life is not something to achieve but a guidance to living.

So, what's the purpose of life? The answer is THERE IS NONE. It's good news and bad news at the same time. Bad news is there's really nothing you NEED to achieve in life. Good news is there's nothing you need to achieve in life so you can INVENT anything you want to create in life. For example, making a difference, wealthy, enjoy all area in life, etc. It became a freedom for us to choose anything.

Hope it helps and thanks for sharing.
