   I believe the purpose of life is to explore and learn.

      I agreed but to keep wid this is very difficult ,someday our consciousness will ask us " what am I living for, learning for ?"

      It's been said that you're a spirit on earth having an human experience. Eventually everyone transitions or leaves their human form behind.

   I am a Disciple of Sri Chinmoy, a Spiritual visionary and to the Disciple, a God-realised Soul, or someone who has re-discovered his oneness with the Absolute Supreme.
   
   I like how you frame the question, so I can only speak for me, that's great! In my book, My Guru Sri Chinmoy: Life And Teachings, I have described the goal three different ways. Guruji speaks of all:
   
   1. God-realisation. Oneness with The Absolute
   
   2. Self-transcendence. This is a theme common with Sri Ramakrishna and all the great Masters that I've read, that life is self-transcending, that there is no perfection as such, but an ever-transcending Goal.
   
   3.Unconditional Surrender. I like this one the most; to allow the Divine to use one for It's own purpose: "Let Thy Will be done.' This I understand to be the Highest Law.
   
   So my purpose is to manifest the Divine; to glorify His name; to continue with my spiritual practices in order to re-awaken or re-discover my true nature, then to manifest this fully in the world in which I live, in harmony with the Will of the Supreme. Great question.

   Very interesting concept. I believe I learned a long time ago that my purpose was to find my purpose. Perhaps I missed it but I do not think so. It has to do with being a parent and a husband to others. When will that time come to be called upon to answer the bell and make a difference? Maybe 20 years from now -- I better stay ready.

      Well said ,Eric, we all have a purpose to live with no regrets and spread happiness. I dont think the purpose is to embrace external god but the purpose is to embrace yourself and the God inside you.
