I was just thinking maybe the next time we are lucid ask a dream character (even better if a spirit/dream guide) what the meaning of life is and see what responses we get. Bearing in mind this all comes from our own sub consciousness it could gain insight into what are our most valued beliefs deep down. Hopefully I will get lucid tonight and try it
If anyone does it write down what they replied in this post please
Not sure if this qualifies exactly. This morning I had woken up and I lay in a sort of loud hypnogogic state. I could hear voices. And I thought I’d ask the question and see if I got an answer. So I think “what is the meaning of life?” and soon An image of a guy appeared. He looked African. Dressed in some military looking jacket. But he seemed like a rebel. And he answered “killing and eating chicken”. I asked “killing and eating chicken?” and he confirmed “killing and eating chicken”.
It seemed weird to me but he appeared to be quite sure of it.
Maybe he was saying that was the meaning to HIS life. When you think about it, most likely the answer to that question is different for everyone. The single most important thing you do in your life could possibly be the “meaning” of your life, the “point” of your life, if you will.
Yes, most likely there is no universal answer, only subjective ones. And outside of the person there is not higher purpose. Therefore everyone makes up their own meaning of life, even though it is a purely made up one and essentially an illusion.
What I thought of his answer was that, There is stuff you gotta do “killing” and there is stuff you enjoy “chicken”, and in his philosophy, you gotta do both. What’s the point of killing if you can’t go home and eat chicken at the end of the day? So you do what you gotta do in order to do what you wanna do.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to find out a universal awnser to the meaning of life, lol. I personally don’t belive there is one. I just thought it’d be interesting to see the awnsers we get. Remebering everything in our dreams are in our subconscious, the awnsers we get probably will have meaning to the individual.
I believe “life” (assuming you are referring to earthly physical life) have a very solid universal meaning.
And that is to learn the lessons we need to in order to progress.
If you think spirit guides exists than the information they will tell you isn´t derived from your own SC.
I´ve had many talks with DCs, guides and astral beings about this.
An interesting case was when I was talking to an entity and asked her if she´s ever been to earth. She said:
“Even though it´s one of the best universities in the galaxy, after seeing it, I´ll never have the courage to go there ”
