When your soul reaches the destination and achieves what it originally sought to achieve, only then is it freed from its responsibility and allowed to return to its original nothingness state of zero. This is the salvation of the soul, to have come back to where it started. This is why there is no beginning and no end.
Conclusion: The Meaning of Living Right
We started by talking about computers, and we have come a long way since that. We need a concrete conclusion that can help us live this life. Knowing what we know now. What is meant by “living right”? If we see only the patterns and not the reality behind them, we will always live in anxiety and fear, although it might be punctuated by fleeting moments of gaiety. If we see only the nothingness and not the marvelous pictures created by the flow of Life Current, we will sink into a morass of inactivity and emptiness.
Some people mistakenly think emptiness itself is enlightenment. This is definitely not so. It’s like going into a theater after the movie is over and staring at the empty screen. Seeing the world correctly means you perceive the harmonious process of Chun-Ji-In while enjoying the sights of its creations at the same time.

Only then will this journey end, and will your soul end its time as this particular incarnation.
The lake will then become just water again. The nucleus that held the soul together need no longer be maintained, for it has been satisfied. Therefore, the Life Current that coalesced around this nucleus is loosed from the chain that bound it to the soul. Once free, it goes back to its original condition of absolute freedom.
No one knows how long this freedom will last. The time of freedom, from another point of view, could be the time before the Life Current is called forth again to come together around another seed of hope and give shape to another soul about to embark on a new journey. It is getting ready to dream a new dream. Just as our bodies decay and provide material for new life, Life Current is recycled continuously to serve the needs of the soul. This process is happening naturally without waiting for someone to attach a label or meaning to it. Put in human terms, we could call it an act of sacrifice and highest love, for it willingly gives up absolute freedom to help one seed of hope to come to fruition and be realized.

Say you headed east for a long time and have come far. Your trip, your steps so far, are recorded in your brain and reflected in the actual position in which you are standing now. This is a fact and has nothing to do with whether you believe in karma or not. The more important thing is where do you go from here? Is there a reason for you to walk in the same direction as you have? Yes, if you know that this is the direction in which your hope lies. However, if you walk in the same direction for no particular reason, then you are subjecting yourself to carelessness and continuing habit, which has nothing to do with your karma.
You always can choose your direction. Ask Your Heart and Talk with Your Brain
If your choice requires you to completely change your life, change directions, and leave the comfort and security of the path that you have walked so far, it is natural for hesitation and second thoughts to accompany such a decision. However, as you know already, more calculations and deliberation do not make the choice any easier or wiser. Ultimately, the decision is a one-time choice.
The question to ask is simple: What is it you really want? What are the things that fill your heart with hope and joy? Ask your soul and heart this question. There is no guarantee that your choice is the one that corresponds to that original hope that acted as the seed around which your soul was built. However, if you don’t ask your soul, where else would you direct the question? If not to your heart, then where?

Who among us six billion strong, has experienced death? Not a near-death experience, but real death? Of course, everyone eventually experiences death once in her life. But there is yet no way to share that experience with someone else. Have any of you reading these words experienced death? If you answer, “yes,” then wake up, for you are mistaken. You are not dead yet. Generally, we do not understand death. More clearly, our level of understanding about death is at the level of ignorance.
If we don’t know what death is, what are we afraid of? What we are afraid of is not death, but information (or the lack thereof) about death. We are afraid of the accepted interpretation or myths about death. We are actually afraid about our own ignorance about death, and out of this ignorance rises our fear. Our ignorance has a deeper source in our ignorance about life itself: “Who am I?” “Why am I here?” If we knew the meaning of life and were able to judge ourselves as natural phenomena in the cycle of life, our fear about death would have no room to stand in our lives.
Do you still not know what your life’s purpose is, or think that you don’t know? When do you think you will find out? If you don’t know your life’s purpose, who do you think is more qualified to know? If you don’t know, no one, not even God, will know. Then how do you find the answer to the question that not even God knows? There is only one way: choice.
