Purpose of Life. That is what i was searching for.
Some seem (claim) to know.
Some claim to guide us to know.
May be i have not found the right person to listen to or am not mature enough to understand even if it was explained in the best of the ways possible. lets leave it to benefit of doubt.
But, the restless and curios mind keeps searching within. The mind proposes to relook at the question and over prolonged internal arguments - the question was rephrased to "Purpose of Death".
So, what is death?
Our heart stops pumping blood, lungs stop exchanging molecules or some other part of the body refusing to collaborate with other organs.
Why death?
The all powerful nature could have created life without death.
Evolution says ( i am made to belive that) the purpose of life on earth is reproduction; followed by survival.
What is the significance of reproduction?
The experiences of a living species is so vast. The essence of all the experience is sorted, filtered, compressed etc etc and stored into a Gene. The 20+ years of experience of an individual is stored in a gene, gets born with basic traits and gains new experience and this process contintues. That could be the significance. So, what?
So, what?
I am not sure of why this has to be this way?
Nature gives a glimpse of death everyday. In the form of sleep. In the form of dreams within sleep. Rearranging and storing experiences in our brain, muscle, cell and gene. Waking up from sleep everyday for a new set of experiences.
Life is not much different. it is just few more days, months and years. Just that the offspring wakes up with the new body and lives in parallel (grand parent, parent, child..) with our current experiences.
Not sure if i would understand Purpose of Life. But, one thing is getting clear. If the offspring has to be healthy, better prepare our gene with good actions and good thoughts.
What is good (or bad)?
This is another question. We may not get a straight answer. We may have to rephrase the question.

Complaining about the current generation is meaningless. We know "who is responsible?"
