The Goal of Life

"The Lord of man and beast is working in all;

His presence is scattered everywhere;

There is none else to be seen.

One talks, another listens; God is in both.

He is the Unity and Himself the Diversity." (Sukhmani XX11.1)

According to Sikh theology, therefore, it is clear that man's soul is, itself, a part of God. It is obvious, however, that human beings are, generally, unaware of the divine spark in themselves; they are far less conscious of the purpose of their existence. According to Guru Nanak, the purpose of human life is to enable the being to appreciate the face

of his relationship with the Eternal Spirit and to facilitate his becoming reunited with Him. When man begins to remember God with love in his heart, his evaluation of worldly pleasures and attachments is inevitably altered. By modelling his life on the perfection of God, and believing in the will of God, he hereby wins God's grace; on attaining this, he is released from the cycle of births and deaths and is reunited with God in perfect bliss:

"Whomsoever He chooses He unites with Himself;

And the chosen one applies himself to His love and sings His praises;

He comes to believe in Him with hearty faith.

And knows that all action proceeds from the One alone." (Sukhmani XX11.3)
