Find my ‘ME’ By Vindi Kohli

“THE INNER PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE’S JOURNEY”

If we look back at religions and values throughout human history, there has always been one question which stands out the most- what is your purpose in life?

It is very fascinating to see how everybody has a different take on their purpose in life.

I never understood the meaning of PURPOSE, I have attended so many workshops, and business webinars and everywhere this is the one question that always used to disturb me. I could not understand the meaning anytime. I never got a satisfactory reply on that either.

After the countless amount of research and reading, the opinions of the experts and then combined with my own life experience, I understood somewhat the meaning of PURPOSE. It is so vast that I think it would take us a lifetime to understand the meaning and go to the depth of it.

There is some fallacy when it comes to the word Purpose’. Most of people assume that PURPOSE means what tasks we are doing, like working, earning money, planning about the future, doesn’t it?

Let me break the myth. Here the PURPOSE is on our life’s journey and without this awareness, we just drift. For us, the purpose means the future, doesn’t it? How do we reconcile that with living in the present?

When we are on a journey, it is important to know where we are going or at least the direction in which we are moving. That is only possible if we know our Destination.

I came across the beautiful statement sometime back, “ If we are not aware of our destination then our journey might become difficult, as we will not have the clue which direction to go, and reaching Nowhere is not the right destination”

The real meaning of the journey is the step that we are taking at this moment and that is where the word “PURPOSE’ makes it significant.

Our life’s journey has an OUTER PURPOSE and an INNER PURPOSE. The OUTER PURPOSE is to arrive at your goal or destination, to accomplish what you set out to do, to achieve which of course, implies to future. It is more about how we act and react, the decisions we make, the work we do, the life partner we choose, our friends etc.

The INNER PURPOSE is our primary purpose in life, and it is WHO WE ARE, that is our state of consciousness, our presence in this world.

The connection between the two is the fact that when we find our INNER PURPOSE, we are then able to fulfil our OUTER PURPOSE differently. We can find true happiness and satisfaction in everything we do and live a happy and fulfilling life.

But in our destination, what steps we are going to take in the future, take up so much of our attention that they become more important to us than the step we are taking now.

Then we completely miss the journey of our INNER PURPOSE, which has nothing to do with where we are going or what we are doing, but everything to do with HOW and NOW.

It has nothing to do with the future but everything to do with the quality of our consciousness at this moment.

Our OUTER PURPOSE may contain a million: Our INNER PURPOSE only has one: the step we are taking right now.

Discovering and living in alignment with the INNER PURPOSE is the basis for satisfying our OUTER PURPOSE.”

It is difficult to complete the OUTER JOURNEY of life without considering the INNER PURPOSE. There are many ways and million steps in the OUTER JOURNEY but there is only one step for the INNER JOURNEY.

As we become more deeply aware of this one step, we realize that it already contains within itself all the other steps as well as the destination. This one step then becomes transformed into an EXPRESSION OF PERFECTION.

Most of the time we put our life on auto-pilot mode and flow with the emotions as it comes. It is important to be aware of our goal, understand and live to the fullest with a meaning that we have sought.

Focus on the journey

“Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.”
