Meaning of Life
Here's what a recent survey found: • 25% of people say it is to seek truth and create meaning for yourself • 22% think the meaning of life is to lovingly help others and make the world better • 18% say there is no meaning • 8% think it is to reproduce and continue your genes and the human race • 8% say it is to find happiness • 6% believe it is to learn how to serve and worship God, while

How you use energy best varies for everyone - therefore, everyone has a slightly different meaning to someone else. Ignoring this means your energy will be all mixed up and your life will be chaotic. This is what most scriptures and spiritual writings are trying to tell us, but just didn't understand energy well enough. If you look at ancient scriptures and spiritual
