Understanding the Game

There is always a question deep down inside that why do we live? What is the purpose of life? What is the meaning of my existence? This indeed is a question which arises when we start becoming mature. We somehow suppress these questions and keep indulging and fighting with our day-to-day activities and life.

But this type of philosophical question was pondered to us earlier when we were kids. The question was, what happens when we become old? What happens after this life? The answer we get  from our parents or elders is that "we die". And the very next moment another question jumps out that Will I die also?  And we were told with compassion and to comfort ourselves that , "No, No beta... This body gets died but the soul remains intact and gets rebirth." Without asking again, we comfort and made a belief that the soul gets rebirth again and again and we somehow in the back of mind, we plan for next birth without actually looking consciously at this very birth, at this very moment. It's hilarious, Right! 

What if, I told you that there is no rebirth. You, your body, your very existence, your relations, your achievements, your failures, your gathered respect, your wealth and everything related to you vanishes in a matter of seconds, instantly. Everything ends with your end. There will be no you again, ever. 

Let me take you through an example to made you understand it clearly. Imagine, you are running a Race with seven and half billion people running with you, may be in different zones and not competing with you, of course but what is true that everyone runs and with you only. A whole lot of seven and half billion people running their races with their own tracks and suddenly a very big wall blocks your path as a barrier instantly and it's over. Your race is over. You will never re-run the race again. The very chance of running the race with full-power is timed up. At any cost, you can never ever run the race again and the fun fact is you can never win the race neither you can ever lose, what you can do is just to run with your full strength and full energy, that's it. No rebirth of your soul with another body will be there to re-run that race.

It's exactly same with this very life. The moment you realise this is only a game of 50-60 yrs and you can never be allowed to run the race again, you start running it the right way. 

The question arises that Neither we win nor we lose than why to live this life? There is no point in living. So, die. You are right, but wait, let me ask one question, why to die? If there is no point in living, then there is no point in dying also. But there is possibility if you are alive, to achieve the greatest you. But if you die, the very opportunity and possibility vanishes. The only last opportunity and possibility exists with you to be the greatest you. How to be the "greatest you"? Just run the race with your full strength, with your full power , the rest will be taken care of. 

Understand and confirm this belief very firmly, that nothing of yours is going to get the second Chance.

Your everything, everything will vanish forever. You will never be here again. This opportunity is given to you, don't just waste it. You can be the best and greatest, don't be average. Don't let this ultimate precious opportunity get lost on vain.
