The Ultimate Goal of Life Men- Moksha Enlightenment Nirvana

The Ultimate Goal of Life MEN- Moksha Enlightenment Nirvana What is the Ultimate Goal of Life? Why this misery, why this strife? We want happiness, but don't achieve our Goal Because we don't realize we are the Soul In ignorance, we live and we die We look at the sky, we pray, we cry But why we are born, we don't and out why Who are we, who is this “I”? We don't go for a search and quest And we don't put our beliefs to test Whatever we are told, we believe the myth We suffer because we don't know the Truth But there were wise men, the Truth who knew They were not many, they were just a few They went on a quest to and the Truth They didn't just accept, went to the bottom of the root Moksha it was called many centuries ago It was Liberation after death, this Truth we know And then there would be no future birth And we would not have to return to earth And then came about the concept ‘Enlightenment’ Realizing the Truth, getting ful?llment It is about not being ignorant And knowing the Truth for our betterment From darkness to light we must go What is the Truth, this we must know For if we don't, as we live and die We will suffer in misery and cry This life is a special gift for us It is not just a moving bus Which starts at birth and death is the end Each moment is precious, to be wisely spent If we realize the Truth, that we are the Soul Then we have achieved our Ultimate Goal There will be Joy, Bliss, Love, and Peace Misery and sorrow will completely cease
