The True Purpose

The true purpose of life is not about always gaining, but how you respond to loss of what you have or not been given an opportunity to get something you almost had or a lost opportunity. Remaining in stillness, unperturbed in such circumstances determines your true quality of mind, and hence your life. Any turmoil means you are at the mercy of the external world for your happiness, forgotten the deep peace within - masked by the ego. Return to Self. Be still. Even when you hold turmoil in your stillness, you transmute turmoil into peace. You become spacious. Vast.
