The Meaning of Life with Dr. Bob

There was a time not too long ago, as time goes, when the answer to the question, “What am I to do?” was easily answered. Just 200 years ago, one’s career path was mapped out for you. If you were male, you did what your father did. Or you apprenticed yourself to someone else who taught you a trade. If you were female, you were almost certainly destined to do what your mother did.

My wife tells me that as little as 40 years ago, in the United States, there were about 4 choices for women: housewife, nurse, teacher, secretary. My wife says that thinking beyond this was almost incredible.

But today, at least in the western and northern quadrant of the world, plus Australia, the choices are many and varied for both genders. So what does one choose to be? And how to find that path?

First, one discover what the meaning of life is for oneself. I think the meaning of life is just waiting to be captured by you. You just look inside and see what your greatest joy would be. (We’ll get to the outward expression of this in just a bit.) I think your greatest joy would be, to be happy. Others have said this as well; to name drop just a bit, the following have said that the meaning of life is to be happy: Aristotle, the 14th Dalai Lama, Dr Wayne Dyer. And you find that happiness by being in touch with The Source of All That Is. When you align yourself with the harmony found in The Source, you will “see” many things. Not the least of which is happiness. Happiness that comes from all the connection you will ever need in The Source. You make this contact by being in prayer or meditation or quiet time or deep concentration.

Second, you listen to you yourself speaking through this bliss. What is it that The Source is saying you might find further bliss in doing? I am not and cannot give you precisely what you need to do to continue your bliss. You will need to discover that yourself. Anything imposed upon you from outside influences, against your knowledge and/or will, is at least incomplete and at most deliberately false.

Now, sometimes folks want this answer about continuing their bliss in the substantive world immediately. They want one session of meditation to facilitate the answer. Rarely ever happens. You need to persist in your journeys inward; you need to experiment with what seems to be suggested to you.

You’ll know you are on the right track when it feels right and good within you. Literally within you. Your body will answer your questions with feelings of joy, wonder and love. This is bliss manifest in your flesh.

Third, when you have some answers, or one answer, try it. Beam your bliss into the world. Take what joy your have found in your inner quest and experience it in the world. Now, please, understand that the first one may not be THE one. Maybe not even the third experiencing. But as you experience more and more bliss as you experiment, you will come close to finding what you are to do with your life. It will absolutely right and good to you, in the flesh.

One, two, three: 1. Find happiness, 2. Listen to your bliss, 3. Experiment. These are three steps to know what you are to do with your life.

By the way, this process can begin at any age of life. I myself have had at least three times when the projecting of my bliss into the world has change. The latest at about age 62. The earliest I can recall at about age 14.

So, get started now. Do what needs to be done in your life so you can be blissful in your attendance upon the living of your life.
