What is the purpose of this world?
Question from the Internet:
“Would the world be a better place if it was never created?”
This sounds like a question that Eastern sages would ask or good for a philosophical thesis.
But if we want to examine it practically, then we could say that for anything to exist is deemed “good” only when that “thing” has a purpose. Purposeless things have no use, and thus their existence is obsolete.
Does our world have a purpose? Unique empirical natural scientists, who have been studying our natural world and human nature in the context of the natural world claim that our world very much has a purpose, a very high purpose.
Moreover, the seemingly self-destructive and cancer-like human beings in this world have a very important and high purpose. Even us being self-destructive and cancer-like is purposeful since only from this seemingly lowly and evil state can we develop to reach our perfect and high, evolutionary Human state.
The whole world exists only for Human beings to come to self-consciousness and self-recognition — we haven’t reached yet — and then start a truly Human and conscious development toward our predetermined, evolutionary Human purpose.
We think that we are surrounded by magnificent nature, we have developed culture, sport, technology, modern lifestyle, and even more modern warfare, and we admire and enjoy all. But everything we see and everything we have ever developed and encountered is only to help us understand our inherent human nature and then also develop a need to gradually, purposefully, and methodically change and further develop ourselves.
Your question is just, since until now, we have been developing and stumbling from one vicious cycle and one crisis to the next blindly and instinctively. As long as we are trapped in our inherently egocentric, subjective, and individualistic bubbles, we perceive and experience a random, chaotic, and purposeless world, where our only goal is to fulfill ourselves with as many physical pleasures as possible, in between involuntary birth and mostly involuntary death.
Fortunately, our Human purpose and the purpose of the world go much higher than that, and we are here to learn this and then implement what we need to do in order to fulfill our unique, very high, and extremely important evolutionary Human purpose.
