A Clear Mission

Regarding the invaluable nature of human life, Kabir Sahib said:
This precious chance

You will not get again.

Various saints have used graphic allegorical images to portray how rare it is to be born a human being. The problem, however, is that souls are born into this world without any knowledge or awareness of the value of this birth, apart from the common belief that we are born with an intellect in order to appreciate and enjoy this life. People therefore use the intellect at every opportunity to experience the pleasure and enjoyments offered by the world.

The greatest good fortune that a human being can experience is to learn what this life is truly all about.

Our soul is a drop from the Ocean of Bliss, Life and Energy, from which it separated milliards of ages ago. It is a stranger in this foreign land of agony and grief. There is nothing homogeneous to it here below in this world of earth, water, fire and air. Unless it returns to its Ancient Original Home, its sorrows and sufferings cannot and will not end.… No one has ever found nor will ever find Him outside.
