Life’s mission, the reason for our existence, why I’m here on earth: this is the most important and primordial question a person can answer. This existential quest lies at the heart of the definition of what it means to be human. All other beings on earth in the animal, plant, mineral and elemental kingdoms don’t need to ask themselves this question. They always and without exception do what their original instructions tell them to do, which civilized beings have tried to identify by speaking of instinct. For those who know the true nature of the world, the term original instructions is much more appropriate, as this evolves even for animals and plants.
But human beings have free will. They are the only one of all species on earth to be able to manage their life direction, to whether or not follow their original instructions. And these instructions are different from those of other species in that they differ from one person to the next.
Ultimately, there are finalities where everyone has the same life mission. But it is the culmination, the completion, when the need for a physical body is no longer necessary, when we have become pure light in the image of what some call angels. This manifests itself when we want to help all beings, in all worlds, all at the same time, and have worked, meditated and worked intensively in this direction for quite a long time. In the first few hundred lives in a human body, learning is more diffuse, more focused on learning how to manage life in a physical body. Indeed, we are souls on a journey, evolving towards total mastery of life, where there are no more difficult experiences, no more suffering, no more death, no more aging, only the pure light of consciousness devoted to an unlimited number of beings in an unlimited number of worlds. This only comes when we have worked and evolved for thousands of lives in the physical worlds.
But the sooner we get there, the better. The very fact that you are reading these lines indicates that you are already well advanced on the path. You’ve reached the beginning of the great journey, of initiation into ever more advanced spheres of knowledge thanks to the good thoughts, good words, good deeds and other beneficial imprints you’ve made to help others.
That’s why, at this stage, it’s important to ask yourself: why am I here? What are my talents and abilities to help others? Where does my heart and soul lead me? The time has come not to follow the mass of humans adrift in the illusions of the modern world, but to apply ourselves seriously to understanding the truth, the reality of who we are. What creates the universe around us? Why do I have these unique talents, skills and abilities?
Without exception, all the great masters will talk to you, mostly by example, about the need to withdraw, to go into solitude and quiet meditation to reflect and meditate. Even the most evolved, like Jesus Christ that we see in the New Testament often going into solitude and retreat to reflect and meditate. It’s part of the rites of passage of the indigenous peoples of our North and South American continents. For our peoples were far more spiritually evolved than today’s societies, thus doing this was a part of our lives. The need to reflect and find truth for oneself is essential. Meditation, too, is part of the training needed to reach the ultimate truth.
Never hesitate when the moment calls for a solitary retreat. At this stage of your evolution, these are the most important and primordial moments of your entire life.
