NOTE: This too is another old post that I feel is very relevant now.

A few days ago I woke up in the morning with the phrase "Life is a Buffet; not a Dine-In!" running through my mind, like an old song! It was my birthday, and since I believe in 'intuition' (that is messages coming from the Universal Mind), I took it as a sign and decided to write this post.

As you would know from my earlier posts, I am always looking out for simple and fitting analogies for Life and the World, such as: "Life...

NOTE to reader: Over the next few weeks I shall be transferring some of the more popular old posts from my older website onto this one. I am starting with the post called: "What is Soul-Purpose?"

What is Soul-Purpose?

Before answering that question, I need to explain why I am suddenly talking about Soul Purpose. It is because I just realized how fragile life is and am coming to terms with my own mortality!

Every other day I am seeing obituaries of acquaintances, colleagues, friends, and...
