I further suspect that the ultimate enhancement is to achieve oblivion as an individualised being and join (or possible rejoin) the Universal Consciousness.<br /><br />But of course, since none of this is provable I don’t claim to know it and would never preach it. I suppose that puts me somewhere in the middle. I sometimes wonder, however, whether being somewhere in the middle is the most pointless – albeit most logical – position of all. But I don’t know that either.JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16069822009799120415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672515173999750909.post-6142713557790909872015-05-28T16:12:33.231+01:002015-05-28T16:12:33.231+01:00Wouldn't it be awful if there were a definitiv...Wouldn't it be awful if there were a definitive answer, though? That would mean some of us would be doing it wrong. I'd rather have no one be wrong and no one be right. The universe doesn't care what I do, so I can do what I want. <br /><br />There seems to be a spectrum of ideas on the meaning of life. On the far end you get the belief that the meaning of life is very concrete, and comes with very specific prescriptions for our behavior (think religion). On the opposite end you get the belief that life is meaningless aside from what meaning we give it ourselves. I think most people are somewhere in the middle.
