secrets of the world, and of the world of stars, and the world that
lies above and around the stars; who flash your words from afar
without a voice; tell me, white men, the secret of our life--whither
it goes and whence it comes!

"You cannot answer me; you know not. Listen, I will answer. Out of the
dark we came, into the dark we go. Like a storm-driven bird at night
we fly out of the Nowhere; for a moment our wings are seen in the
light of the fire, and, lo! we are gone again into the Nowhere. Life
is nothing. Life is all. It is the Hand with which we hold off Death.
It is the glow-worm that shines in the night-time and is black in the
morning; it is the white breath of the oxen in winter; it is the
little shadow that runs across the grass and loses itself at sunset."

To give a meaning to life pre-supposes a god.

486220 2006-09-21 19:23:00 Hmmmmm.....

where the bus has been or where it is going is often irrelevant, because when you get off the bus you are already there....

....if the destination is irrelevant...how do you know when you are there?:cool:

486222 2006-09-21 21:06:00 Now James, you really did not expect :waughh: us to give deep truthful answers here on PF1, did you? :lol:

Anyhow, you know the answer: To cleanse one's karma by understanding suffering, getting in touch with your Buddha Nature, to serve others, etc . But the serious path cannot be followed all the time and that is why we come here to PF1 Chat - to be entertained, and to entertain others . :D

486223 2006-09-21 21:10:00 @JJJJJ - Even if the meaning is that it has no meaning that is still a lesson, it is a Cosmic Joke. zqwerty (97)
486224 2006-09-22 05:49:00 Sometimes as i have said before the destination is irrelevant, as you all end up in the same place eventually . . . . . . . . . . . . . . which is dead . . . . . . . . . . . so just enjoy the ride while it lasts eh? :lol:

no? oh well worth a giggle :p

the bus of life is always on your road . . . . . . . . . . . . nobody else's . . . . . . . and the journey is always your journey . and it no's where you are going even if you dont . . . . . . . . . . . hang on enjoy the ride and makes some good memories, and some great friends on the way . . . . . . . . . . . life is meant for living . . . . . . . . :D
