Goal, What is this?


Goal, a word, which we all love and think that it makes our life more meaningful. Starting from our childhood, we are asked to have some goal in life. The goals keep on changing but continue to exist in one form or another.

Sometimes, I wonder, do the flowers also have some goal? What about the goal of animals, trees, birds, etc, after all, they are also part of the same nature. Is there any goal for earth or other millions of planets and stars, which we know are existing and others many more which are beyond our imagination?

What is this goal? Is the real goal is struggle for survival or something more?

    Goals are man made destinations…
    limited with thought and imaginations,
    A purpose is what we all have,
    which has been predecided
    by the ultimate creator,
    whether birds,flowers,rivers or oceans,
    planets revolving or stars twinkling,
    Everything has a purpose..
    for what it is and why it exists…

    Good inquisitive thought Nirmal !

    ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਚੁੱਲ੍ਹੇ
    ਖਾਈਏ ਰੋਟੀ ਸੇਕ
    ਭਰਦਾ ਪੇਟ

    ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਚੁੱਲ੍ਹੇ
    ਪੱਕਦੇ ਮਨ-ਭਾਵ
    ਰੂਹ -ਖੁਰਾਕ

      ਹਰਦੀਪ ਜੀ
      ਬਹੁਤ ਬਹੁਤ ਧਨਵਾਦ
      ਮੇਰੇ ਖ੍ਯਾਲ ਵਿਚ, ਇਸ ਤੋਂ ਵਦਿਆ ਏ ਗਲ ਬਯਾਨ ਨਈ ਹੋ ਸਕਦੀ
      ਦਿਲ ਮੋਹ ਲਿਆ.
      ਜਿੰਦਗੀ ਡੀ ਚੁਲੇ ਵਾਹ. ਏ ਚੁੱਲ ਡੀ ਅੱਗ, ਹਾਥ ਸੇਕਦੀ ਵੀ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਸਰਦੀ ਵੀ ਹੈ.
      ਫਿਰ ਤੋ ਧਨਵਾਦ.

  3. i think being obsessive with your goal can be destructive. a good parent should always teach children that having a goal is good but that should not be all.

    loved the post.

    i too have goals but they are small ones, like improving myself in whatever i do.

    No one wins this life. 🙂 Of course goals is just an expression of total belief in a series of groundless thoughts.

    All feelings are illusion. You are not your feelings.
    So, focus on what is “not.”
    What you just stated is an enigma – and illustrates the way thoughts work in a perfect way.

    Just stop thinking.
    You are illusion.

    We humans are given the higher mind than the rest……. so we always live in that existential angst 🙂

      nice way to think, who is higher or who is lower, how does it matter, everything is sturggling for survival …… i dont think on this, i feel live in the present moment to the fullest and leave d rest. its easy to say but still one can try:-)

        Our mind is nothing compared to no-mind. We are not intelligent because our memory but dispite, but to only a small degree. With no mind all is seen. A monkey is light years more intelligent than any human with a mind.
