Today all of a sudden this idea occur ed to me. This idea occupied me all day. Ideas sprang like a stream, spurts of thought, of course in a chain. I am too poor at my expression to pour out the ideas I had to day.
Life is indeed a mystery and all of us from difference domains or disciplines are trying to arrive at some commonly agreed idea or truth of life. But no books, no theological or scientific reasoning gives us an exact picture of it.
In the course investigation we will die. yet the quest for the holy-grail or meaning of life go on infinitely.

Nope, life is just about making more life.
Think Lion King and Mufasa's speech to Simba. Except throw procreation in there and that's pretty much all that life is.

I think we're all here to do soul work. We're here to learn a life lesson and we learn it and then we die and if we haven't learned the lessons we're supposed to learn by the time we die, we return as an old soul as many times as it takes until we master the lessons.
So we're not really solving mysteries - we're just learning lessons and some people have a harder time at that.
And yes there is evil to contend with while we're here. I'm not real clear about the evil souls. But the average, good soul comes back again and again. That's my theory anyway. :)

I like Shalot's theory.

"Life" is too large a word to really mean anything.

I accede your perspective.However,there are books,theological or scientific reasoning in the world.Let me define.Lots of scientists had already discovered our human body and their functions,plants parts and their functions,etc.These have been accurate,thus,I must confess that we had solved quite a few mystery of life.

Ah,I have the same feeling currently too.I accede your perspective.However,there are books,theological or scientific reasoning in the world.Let me define.Lots of scientists had already discovered our human body and their functions,plants parts and their functions,etc.These have been accurate,thus,I must confess that we had solved quite a few mystery of life.
