Director Roger Nygard went across the entire world asking theologians, ministers, priests, imams, rabbis, scientists, physicists, biologists, and skeptics 85 questions to try to understand The Nature of Existence!
Now that he’s asked the experts, it’s now YOUR TURN! Every day we’re going to ask YOU one of the very same questions Roger asked in his award-winning documentary. To offer your own insight into today’s question, “Why do we exist?” click the “Leave a Response” button and type away!
Imagine if we were actually robots under control. With people watching our every move. We could be apart of a major exsperiment controlled by a ape . . .
We exist to question the nature of our own existence
What is we are actually goldfish with legs. Which live on land!!
We exist to try and find out why we exsist. And we exsist to experoence things. Like meeting Killer Wales and being eaten by them!! Existance is lushems.
We exist to feed Goldfish and give them love. Exsistance is Epic!! Like Noodles . . ..
We exist because of evolution. We are, in a very basic sense, the universe becoming aware of itself.
“we are all free to believe what we want, and its my view that the simplest explanation is, there is no god. No one created the universe and no one directs out fate, this leads me to a profound realisation, there is probably no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe” – Stephen hawking.
I’m with him ^
and adding to that who cares how we came to exist, the chance of your life existing is 1 in 10^2,685,000 in other words you are extremely lucky.
what makes life exciting is wondering how we came to exist maybe we aren’t meant to know or find out
Random thought: The human race survives still to make an accomplishment that is not stated anywhere and the moment “WE” make said accomplishment the living universe will “feel whole” and cease life existence as it will be no longer needed.
We exist because a God of love cannot be stagnant, Love must expand. We ourselves, fall in love, raise or desire to raise families. Friends are accumulated and we as a species are designed to return God’s love. Love continually grows and desires others to respond in kind. What some construe as random mutations is, in truth, a grand design. I ask this, when does a series of accidents cease to become accidents after they continually point toward awareness? We return love, that is why we actually exist.
We exist, simply, because we do. 180,000 years ago other organisms existed. At some point in the future, others will replace us. We are simply another series of accidents in the life cycle of the universe. We are not special, and we are made in no one’s image. That being said, because we have this big brain which generates what Jung called “the mind.” the mind is responsible for self-consciousness, ego and the subjective view of the world which we all have. It is this mind that creates the myths by which we guide our lives.
There is an answer … but just talking doesn’t go anywhere.
Talk, talk, talk … deep down you know that talking doesn’t go anywhere.
You need to be a bit more courageous if you want to find the answer.
Meditation is one way.
We exist as an individualized soul the Atma, Logos-Thymos-Eros, Seele, Anima, Ame in order to become fully aware gather experience, and wisdom for our return journey back to our original home the heart of all life the ocean of love.
