The purpose of life is to live a life of purpose.
The Six Paramitas (Perfections)
The Sanskrit word paramita means to cross over to the other shore. Paramita may also be translated as perfection, perfect realization, or reaching beyond limitation.
Through the practice of The Six Paramitas, we cross over the sea of suffering (samsara) to the shore of happiness and awakening (Nirvana); we cross over from ignorance and delusion to enlightenment.
Spiritual Wellness refers to integrating our beliefs and values with our actions.
A sense of purpose, direction, and awareness are important. Realizing what values, rights, and responsibilities takes some thought and discussion.
The first step in developing values and spiritual wellness is to examine your own values: respect, honesty, human life, family, education, religion, health, wealth, community service, diversity.
Discuss values with others, spend time and act in a manner congruent with your values and the values of the community and society.
