What is the Meaning of Life?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the ultimate question. The one that keeps you, me, and everyone else pondering in the wee hours of the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before asking this, we must first know – what does \u201cmeaning\u201d mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As humans, we constantly attach meaning to every event of our life. We top the Mock Test – must mean we will clear the exam! We fail the Mock Test – must mean this exam is not our cup of tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But let\u2019s face it – Meaning is just a mental construct!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each event can have differing opinions, & different meanings for different people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any kind of meaning has always helped humans survive. Using fire meant we could eat cooked food, & using a barter system meant different people could benefit from each other\u2019s goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meaning, thus, is nature\u2019s way of motivating humans for survival!<\/strong>

Meaning drives all of our actions. When meaning is attached to something, we go our ways to make things right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a UPSC Aspirant, the journey of preparation is a medium, which attaches itself to the meaning of being successful. The meaning of bringing changes in the society, meaning of helping the poor, meaning of taking the country to new heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So – while you are frustrated because of that one result that has pushed you towards asking these philosophical questions – it\u2019s time you go back to the reason you started, & the meaning attached to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
