Hello instructors,

Over the last few years, I have been striving to find meaning in my life, find my life purpose, my mission, and how I can have a positive impact in this world, however, I continue to be unable to find those answers and Im constantly trying to find those things but cant.

Does one have to have a purpose and a mission in life? Or is it ok to just live day and suspend all of that because often I just feel happier when im not trying to find those things.

Thank you for any guidance you can give me and lots of love =)

What you call purpose, the Master Samael Aun Weor refers to as 'vocation'. Everyone needs to find their vocation and it is not always easy. Here are some resources for study:
https://glorian.org/books/fundamentals-of-gnostic-education/vocation
https://glorian.org/learn/courses-and-lectures/gnosis-of-buddha-dharma/right-livelihood-vocation

From our own experience, we can say that you will find your vocation in your life and your circumstances, not in a big spiritual revelation (although some might). Sometimes we just realize that we have already found it after many, many years. Because it is your Being who provides the life, the circumstances and the vocation for you. We might just notice it later :) So reflect on your life.

Dear TJ,

Thank you for your question. To exist is to have purpose. The goal is to understand that purpose and work towards its fulfillment.

I share some links below for you. Please have a look. I pray that you understand your purpose and have the will torwards its fulfillment.

We need to see not the way we think we are or the way that we believe that we are, but the facts: about our mind, about our experience of life, about how we think and how we feel and the impulses that we feel that provoke us to act. - Purpose of Life — Beginning Here and Now



It is essential to know where we come from, where we are going, why we are here and what for. Living to live, eating to exist, working to eat, cannot really be the only object of life. Undoubtedly, we have to solve the enigma of our existence, we have to understand the meaning of life... - The Purpose of Existence, the Meaning of Life
