Who are we?
What is spirituality?
Are we spiritual beings having human experiences, or human beings experiencing spirituality?
It has already been settled that our primary needs are food, shelter, and sex, and many of us find happiness when those needs are met. Yet some of us seek fame and power, and even after satisfying those cravings, a lingering desire for more remains.
So people turn to religion for satisfaction, but religion only provides rudimentary answers, often twisted and even erroneous. And since religion has utterly failed to crack that mystery, we have hermits, sannasins, bhikshuks, and fakirs who go beyond their rudimentary quest. How many of them get the heart-filling, all-satisfying answers?
Then why does their quest never end? Why do they keep praying, meditating, and seeking without ever feeling truly fulfilled?
Because, in this search no answer is final, no quest finds a terminal resolution. There is no beginning, no end. We are bits of stardust experiencing ourselves. Exploring, discovering, creating, destroying, caught in an eternal loop, Indra's net.
