The meaning of life is clear now.

Happiness. (btw this has to do with science, not religion)

If you do not have enough of it, you will contemplate suicide. Whether it be you lost your job, or someone is out to kill you. They ALL result in a loss of happiness. Suicide is the minds natural reaction to sadness. We are almost programed to "terminate" ourselfs if this occurs.

But why terminate?

Because "life" reaches a higher plain (no this is not a religous thing, it's a quantum physics thing). After life, we reach a field of vibrant conciousness. It is here were the "soul" meet's it's purpose. We are just a video game character.. operating at request only to 1 power. The power, who ever it is, whatever it is, holds the purpose to our purpose.

A living being seeks above all else to discharge its strength. Life itself is will to power. Nothing else matters.

FarCry2 anyone?

Was "42" not clear enough? :x

As a Physics major, I'm open to hear your explanation how life reaching a different dimension is related to quantum mechanics.

There is no MEANING of life. Life is an overrated phenomenon. The purpose of human beings as a whole however is immortality. Think about it.

as am I,........but not as a Physics major.

I wish their was a different answer, but such is life.

As a Physics major, I'm open to hear your explanation how life reaching a different dimension is related to quantum mechanics.

the idea is that we don't only exist as a body in this limited physical plane of only this existence but that we have other bodies on different vibratory levels that are all connected to this body. its a mix of new age and really oversimplified quantum mechanics. but in the most base of ideas if it were true (that our bodies extended outside of this existence) then the theory could hold true.

ive read a bit of both the ideas behind it, the new age supporters of it and some of the basics of quantum mechanics. im not a college major by any means but in an incredibly highly theorized sense it could be possible. now all they have is the burden of scientific proof using sciences that aren't completely understood yet.

Haiti and darn near every other third world country says otherwise. There is also HOPE, and yes, that IS a religious thing.

I use to think happiness is the goal of life

Then I came to realize happiness can only be a direction since it is fleeing and is pretty much dependent upon an influence, be that influence an internal force or external stimuli. It is impossible to be in a state of constant happiness without coming back down, or crashing after getting high from drugs

Personally I subscribe to the Buddhism teaching that the state of contentment is really what we should be after

Far Cry 2 borrowed from Nietzsche.. But I've read about him before I ever played FC2 (which I didn't like that much) other than the awesome quote. Assassin1349

Not everyone accepts suicide as an option regardless of how ****ed their lives are.

"This is mankinds dream, mankinds desire, mankinds destiny
To be the strongest
To go the farthest
To climb the highest

To compete
To envy
To hate eachother
and
Devour one another"
- Rau Le Creuset

Always thought that was a cool quote, true or not, might not even make all that much sense.
I think it means we live to overcome.

Quantum Mechanics cannot be simplified. It's a nature of the subject. Schrodinger's Uncertainty Principle is the main culprit why it cannot be simplified.

I can also see that this took an interpretation of the concept of multi-verses where we can have copies of ourselves existing in other universes.

Human consciousness is very philosophical at the moment since we're not really sure as to why consciousness forms. This is because we are using brains to study the brain. We need something higher than a human brain in order to understand it.
