What is life?
Life is the very form of existence. Its being alive and feeling things around you. Its about interacting with surroundings and choosing to do things as you please.
Can you do everything you please?
No, there should be a line there. But no one should draw the line and make it concrete. Its about social norms, after all we are social animals. And acceptable social norms should be followed wherever possible. But once in a while lines can be overstepped in a way that does not harm the people.
How do you know you have harmed people?
Harming people is not just physically harming them. It is wrong to physically harm people unless circumstances demand. But harming them emotionally too. This involves mocking some one's beliefs, questioning morals and so on.
Can we really live our life without harming people?
Of course not, We are human. It is human tendency to make mistakes, after all that is what makes us humans. But once we realize the mistake we are doing, we should make amends. It could be a simple good gesture to a heart felt apology to anyone you have hurt emotionally.
What is God? Does God really exist?
God refers to the force/power that created a planet in the universe where life can be sustained and also gave us the analytical brain which has helped us create so much wonderful things on earth. It is also that force that we question everyday of its existence. Its a mystery. Religions of this world search it in the form of a mysterious force and Science searches it in large particle colliders. But everyone acknowledges it is out there in some form.
What do we do after death? Is there an afterlife?
We don’t do anything. Death is just a game over state. There is nothing beyond it. Religions preach afterlife and rebirth. But this is more or less to provide a remedy to fear in humans. As we are most afraid of change. Even small changes scare us and death is so large a change. The religions concepts answer to that fear. They use the fear to bring order among people. But it is nothing to get scared of, because death absolves you off all responsibilities, of all things in your life. You should embrace it. It is not a bad thing, after all its just the end. We should make sure that when we go out we go out in style by making sure our name lives on beyond us. This can be done by doing good things as accepted by society and making positive changes to the neighborhood we live in.
