I've been asking this question myself ever since I started putting my intellectual mind into play. And my question is, why do we exist in a human form only? Unfortunately, my 10 year old self was not really mature enough to find answers back then. But things have changed now. I've started understanding this concept of our existence at a deeper perspective. It's quite hard for me to put it in simple words as these are my personal views. I'll try anyway.
I feel that our so called world is practiced and is kinda messed up. People are so influenced by this practiced world that all they care about is their social status, their failed relationships, making money etc. I agree, this fictional concept of money we all tend to believe is helpful. But it is overrated, people are getting way too desperate which ain't necessary.
Let's go back in time when we started using our mind for the very first time. Try eliminating this world called curiosity. Well, without it we wouldn't have achieved what we are right now. Also, that explains our advancement in technology.
Let me tell you guys! Life is much more than that. It's high time that people start worrying about it. What if there exists another civilization several thousand light years away from our galaxy? And if that civilization is at least 1 billion years older than us, their advancement in technology is no match for us. We are nothing but a mere particle in this cosmic world.
What if the existence of the higher dimensional beings is actually true? What if the simulation theory is actually true? Incase you're wondering what exactly simulation theory is! It is a conceptual theory which says that we are under simulation by higher dimensional beings. And, that explains our pattern like structures (Mandala), Our mathematical formulas, rules, procedures etc. How did they even come into picture in the first place? Well, curiosity is the reason.
What I'm trying to convey is that the life is much more than what we think it is. It only gets deeper as we dig into it.
Spiritual awakening, Self-realization, Enlightenment. Yup! That's the purpose of our existence. At least, that's what I believe.
Next time, when you feel low or depressed. Come to reality. Our problems are nothing in this comic world. We are tiny little particles. Just enjoy the process of life, everything's connected. Try to look at things in a different perspective.
