According to nature.... every organism.. lives to reproduce.. to propagate its kind... we are also kinda like tht.. but.. we r different.. what do you think ?

we dont know wht life is all about... we dont know workings of love at all.... neither dont we know where want to go.... we jus move frm one state of emotion to another... is tht all there is to it?
(Friend 1)
yes.. thats why i feel we are not very different from other organisms.
(Friend 2)
guess so..and figure it all as we go
(Friend 3)
emmm.... i dont think we should go with wat majority think and behave like but may be ur rite....

we dont have a clue even now.. after 10 yrs of awareness ( i mean.. puberty... the awakening to materialism.... a little maturity.. what ever!)... will future be any different... will we ever understand??? are we not every day just reacting like organisms.. to stimuli (emotions, money, etc)?

of course i have absolutely no idea.. but i guess in the bigger picture we are(or nature is) just trying to propagate life itself.. not as individuals, not as a species, but as the union of all species..
trying to refine and improve at each iteration..
and our species itself is one direction for nature for improvement....

(Friend 3)and our species itself is one direction for nature for improvement....
(Friend 2)

i agree... ur saying that its not the individual experiences that matter.... bu the whole outcome... and species.. is just one out of many factors in moving towards that state....
(Friend 1)
i think what they say in hinduism abt god being in everyone and everywhere.. is their way of expressing the idea that individual information is collated across all beings for future generations/species..

i hence attempt to define life..... like this....
Life is the sum of two things...
At one level.. life.. for the individual means a process of existence ( Response to worldly stimuli -> making choices -> living )............
At another level life is a "transition state" of the WHOLE(sum of all).. towards a better future(a higher state of being or refinement)..... it is this higher conscience ( the WHOLE) that seeks to reach the goal... and the vehicle for that transition is the life of all individuals which we experience in general....
it is the sum of the above two with intelligence , evolution and some random events..... as constraints..... to reach the ultimate end state......
