The Human Experience: Curiosity to Creation to Fulfillment
Life, Death, and Why We're Here
What is life and what is death? Can we have life without having death? Is life what makes death death? Or is it death what makes life a life?
The line between them is this: we came for a reason. We started somewhere and we are still going somewhere in this whole universe. What's the limit? No one knows.
It's a truth that we cannot diminish the human potential to create. Everything that can be created, humans can create it. Everything that is understandable, humans can understand it—in this whole universe. That's wired in us in the form of a genuine curiosity.
The Destruction of Curiosity
But humans themselves can delay or destroy this innate curiosity that may turn into innovation and creation. Take for example the last 100 years—it was the effect of humans destroying their universal power.
First, by destroying the ability to think freely at an early age for each individual. For example: the formal education system that is wired to produce workers for economical reasons.
But are we paying attention to the consequences? What are we trying to optimize and measure here? "Economic reasons"—seriously? Destroying the most valuable thing living in this earth? Just so another party can have economical well-being?
This is the greatest crime known to this day, in my opinion. It's convincing the majority of human beings that they are nothing. An object, let's say. An existential problem, for whom the world provides various instant gratification injections to fill the void inside.
The Void and the Message
That void is a message from the soul to operate at the maximum potential of the self. So that oneself starts filling the void with what makes him wired naturally—which is his genuine curiosity.
Humans are the Universe Explorers and Explainers. We cannot be that as dopamine addicts.
The Mission
One's mission, then, is to make his genuine curiosity his addiction—while also looking for how to make a living from that, naturally.
Only when we have lived, we can then die.
If we are not living, then we are dying.
