Strategy to find Purpose 0f Life

Life is a straightforward process. We are reasonably happy with our existence and keep on craving to achieve the elusive peace. Peace in real sense is a static state of mind which can be achieved either by having control over the MIND and body or by eternal bliss. This can be attained by practising YOGA and controlling our animal instincts e.g anger,greed, jealously and sexual urge. Even our personal struggles fit into some kind of meaningful pattern. Doubts and confusion may arise from time to time, but an underlying meaning or purpose sustains us.Life is not so straightforward for some of us. Couping with the fast pace and complexity of life may strain our energy.Illness or family problems may cause additional stress. We may feel a creeping sense of weariness with life, a sense that life is just too hard and not much fun. Even though we desire it, we're not sure our lives fit into a meaningful pattern.
We are created in God's image for relationship with him. Being in that relationship is the only thing that will ultimately satisfy our souls. Until we come to know God, we've had many wonderful experiences. We've done many noble acts, but not the one we were ultimately designed for, not the one through which we will find the most fulfillment.This elusive contentment can be achieved by following strategy of doing duties carefully as per your capacity and not desiring something in return.
