Karma and the Meaning of Life:
From a buddhist point of view the meaning of life
is to change karma.
I am today a Maitreya Buddhisy = Modern buddhism,
which will arise when East meets West)
Buddhism states that a human life is a gift to
cultivate. As a free spiritual being, you have
already shown that you have not succeeded in
permanently improving karma (Buddhist point of view),
even if the modern Western civilization
(civilization type 2) has advanced amazingly in a
purely material way and from an individual point
of view it is a considerable karmic improvement.
Our modern Western civilization gives the
individual a great opportunity to improve karma,
partly as the individual has an unmatched
opportunity to break away from clan thinking and
family ties and as our civilization has given
modern citizens greater opportunities and more
leisure time (to be used for walking on the Road
to Enlightenment).
From a Buddhist point of view, it is the duty of
the human nature (= the meaning of human life)
to seize this opportunity to be enlightened
(= find truth).
There are five different ways to change karma:
1. Through education.
2. Through meditation.
3. Through environmental change.
4. Using inventions.
5. Using laws.
For the individual, method 1. to 3. works best.
Methods 4. and 5. change the karma of the culture
and society.
