well, i will like to answer this question at two levels – in worldly sense and spiritual sense. because at both levels the answers are going to be different.
what is the most important thing in lifeย at worldly level:
at wordly level it is to “know what you want to do or achieve in this life“. many of you will say, i am clear about this part. but wait. many times, this decision is heavily influenced by your conditioning, upbringing, feeling of competition, jealous or ego. which is not right. so one has to spend time with oneself and find out one’s inner calling.
i mean you should find the aspect of your life in which you intrinsically want to go deep and which gives you inner joy or contentment or peace of mind. it could be music, dancing, writing, sports, cinema, astrology, meditation or any thing. it could be any kind of hobby or work…that does not matter. what matter is that it aligns with your energies or fulfills you…. and makes you whole…. makes you content from within.
if you can find that aspect of your life then you are lucky and most important thing is to pursue it because that needs guts and totality from your end. because most probably your friends and family are going to oppose it.
what is the most important thing in lifeย at spiritual level:
most important question for any spiritual seeker is to know the reality of oneself. “who am i?
if you are a spiritual seeker of truth then you must dedicate your life to find this eternal truth and don’t compromise. always listen to your inner voice.
so friends do you know what is your true calling?
think like this. suppose there is no expectation from you and every profession are seen equally in the society and are paid equal respect and money by the society. e.g. a peonย is at par with a hollywood hero then what work would you like to pursue?
if you are a thinking type person then think without the conditioning of the society.
and if you are a person who is more connected to heart then listen to your heart.
its important for everyone to find out their inner calling and then pursue it totally.
