The Meaning of Life with Dr. Bob

The meaning of life and to be happy have something to do with karma. Karma is simply, yet completely, defined as “the effects of one’s actions.” Like 2 + 2 = 5. Or like when you open a window and the breeze blows in. Yes, I deliberately chose illustrations that are innocent. Because karma does not always bring bad consequences.

Further, karma is not punishment for something you have done or not done. You must see this. It is simply the effects of one’s actions. When something bad happens to you, it may be, I repeat, may be caused by something you did. But it is in no way punishment. Nor is it, then, reward for something you have done right. It is like blowing out the flame on a burning candle. You blow air out your lungs toward the flame and if the air volume is sufficient and forceful enough, the flame is extinguished.

That does not mean, however, that someone else cannot inflict pain upon you. Because that pain is inflicted does not necessarily mean you have done anything wrong. People are free. They will do what they want. Sometimes people do bad things. The hurt you feel from such events may not have been caused by what you did or did not do.

So, you have got to live with the consequences, effects, of what you do or say. That’s karma. But when you feel hurt it does not mean, absolutely, you have done anything to deserve that pain.

There are those who say that the effects of what we do can be carried over several or many lifetimes to be worked out. In other words, one could have done something so heinous in another life that the effects of that act are still being worked out in this life. And maybe it takes more than one lifetime to work them through.

What I say is this: You deserve the best. You are a child of The Creative Spirit; you are spirit yourself. As such all the best is yours, as long as you don’t stand in the way of it. When pain comes your way, as it does for all of us, you haven’t inescapably done something to cause it. Yes, it could be the working out of the effects of some past behavior of yours. Or, it could be that some free human being has caused this pain.

Don’t automatically assume you deserve hurt. DO assume the you deserve the best. The effects of your actions will work themselves out. But the affliction you feel at any moment is not inescapably of your doing.

The meaning of life, to be happy, has to do with accepting that you deserve the very best. Which you do. Believe it. Live it.

I was looking at the tweets from Twitter having something to do with the meaning of life.  Many dozens of folks mention or ask the direct question, “What is the meaning of life?” everyday on Twitter.

There are events and circumstances in life that we regard as good or evil. Many philosophers and gurus want us to consider all events as neither good nor bad. They insist that all events are neutral and we give them their connotation.

But, I think, for the average person this is a difficult task. When one is caught in the throws of what most everyone would call evil, persons cringe. In other words, how to help these folks as they are on their way to enlightenment. We are not all at the same level of insight.

As we work our way deeper into the Core of our beings, the Center where all is calm, how shall we deal with evil? Good, of course, is simply accepted and rejoiced in. But what of evil? Here is an answer.

In a Universe that is free, what some call bad things will happen. What some people call bad people will happen. Events or people choose to think that they must do what others call evil. Greatest example, perhaps: Adolf Hitler. He developed a plan to make certain persons superior to all others. He evolved a design that would eliminate those he saw as a problem. The point is, he believed he was correct. He found people who agreed with him. They set the plans in motion. At first he couldn’t be stopped.

It’s not that the Universe turned a blind-eye, by the way. There is operative in the Universe a mechanism called Karma. Karma basically means that what one does sets up a momentum that will flow back upon you. This is called, sometimes, “consequences.” Whatever one does, there are consequences.

When something bad is happening in your life, as you see it, that’s the very time you need to consider karma for both yourself and everyone and everything involved in the event. The first thing you need to realize is that there will be consequences for whoever perpetrated this negative upon you.

Then you need to try to make sure you do not retaliate in kind. You want your karma to be good. Defend yourself, for sure. Protect your life and property, if need be. Protect the lives of your loved ones, absolutely. But do not be the cause of evil yourself. (Defending your life, even if it results in the death of the one attacking you, is not evil, in my view.)

Deal with evil in the best way you can. Try to preserve your own good karma. (For some this answer will seem very simplistic. Not enough meat on the bones. That may well be true, but not everyone is at the same level of grace.) Small steps first. Till that day when you can see all events as neutral and you know yourself free to choose how to label them.

When you uphold your own good karma, you are reaffirming the meaning of life, which is to be happy.

It is very easy to say the meaning of life is to be happy. But what does that really mean?

It means you find happiness.

Which consists knowing that you deserve to be happy. I would even say you are entitled to happiness. Happiness is your God-given connection to the Source. It is already built into you.

When you understand that you deserve happiness through connection to the Source, then you know that you may love yourself and others. The Source is All. If The Source is All, then The Source is in you and you are in The Source.

This notion, being eternally connected with The All, gives you self-esteem, when you accept it. But please see I said “accept” it. You do not need to do or be anything extraordinary to esteem yourself. You are a piece of The All – esteem enough for anybody. Just accept it.

From this self-esteem you may develop a positive attitude. If The Source Is All, then The Source supports All. You are supported in everything you do. In this support, then, you may know that All works for your benefit. Who can not have a positive attitude when The All is affirming you?

But, of course, you live in a world that is dynamic. In other words, you are constantly interacting with it. So what does happiness have to do with you interacting in the world? As you are happy from the inside, you beam out that happiness into the world. What you are, is what you’ll get. Who you are inside is who you’ll be on the outside. You beam positivity into the world from your inner core of happiness.

All this comes back around to you in an endless cycle of benevolence. Some name this cycle Karma. You will see and feel this affection when you will look for it. Even looking for it in the midst of tragedies.

Even better than my words here are the “laws” of quantum physics. In other words, I now take this out of opinion and place it in the more substantive world of science. The Universe seeks Harmony. Harmony can be another word for Love. Harmony can be another word for Resonance. When you resonate with the Universe through harmony, happiness, you have placed yourself within sympathetic vibrations, which support you. This harmony gives foundation to happiness, for happiness is harmony. As you beam your bliss into the Universe, it resonates with you and returns the favor over and over again.

The meaning of life is to be happy and that happiness includes the above mentioned extras.
