If we refer to the non-believing public, it is very difficult to discuss the meaning of our lives. Because if a person is really aware that all his actions are predetermined and that everything is in the hands of nature, both internal and external, then the whole meaning of his life is gone. In that case he is nothing but something that exists somewhere between the internal and external natures.
In order for us to understand that, we must understand that our whole nature focuses on a single desire – to enjoy. That desire for pleasure is created by the Creator “existence from absence”. It is created because the Creator wants to delight us, because His nature is about absolute wholeness, His nature compels Him to give and for that He had to create man, the desire to receive pleasure.
