What is Life

It is difficult to understand life. Anybody who tries to define the concept of life finds himself stuck between the physical and divine phenomenon occurring all around us. To understand life we have to go beyond the physical and material boundaries.phenomenon of life is larger and deeper beyond the capacity of the human mind.

Science has tried to understand life through a lot of experiments, but science has its own limitations.life is a divine phenomenon. It is ever changing and overspending. Life is the greatest miracle of the universe because, in this whole universe, the earth is the only planet where life exists.

Each and every particle on this planet has its own life. It is the level of energies which differentiate one particle from the other. Philosophers have said that even a stone or pebble has a life. It exists like a stone because its particles are dense and the energy is in the form of potential energy. The same stones are going through transformations to become a living organism. from stone it becomes a plant, plants become animals and finally animals become human beings. In this way, life flows and goes on transforming itself.

to understand in a more simple way, whatever we eat goes inside us and becomes life. and whatever we eat comes through the soil. The soil transforms into plants and trees.plant and trees become animals as they are eaten by them. Human beings eat either plants or animals and they get transformed into the human body. So ultimately we are nothing but a more advanced form of soil.

This shows that each and every part of this planet and universe is interconnected with each other. We are just a small part of this all-pervading and ever existing energy of the universe. We can feel and perceive this energy through meditation.when we sit silently and go deep into the meditative state all the limitations cease to exist and we can feel the universal energy. Then we no longer remain confined to the boundaries of the physical body and become one with the universal soul.

So if you want to understand the meaning of life, there is one and only one way and that is the way of meditation. Meditation is a way to understand life. Only meditation can lead us towards the peace and well being which is much needed in today's world.
