Alia Bhatt's ad sparks debate. And what purpose can you have here-now? Sometimes you are chopping wood, and sometimes you are carrying water from the well.
What purpose can you have? It is a prop for the ego — there is no purpose. Existence simply is. And because there is no purpose, existence is utterly beautiful. If you think there is a certain purpose, then you will be falling into a regress. Only foolish people will answer that there is a purpose — foolish because they are not aware that they are falling into regress.
Why this world? He could have simply told him what the truth is. If there is a purpose, the whole thing seems to be unnecessary. But there is no purpose. It is simply the overflowing energy of existence. Existence is delighting in its energy, overflowing in all directions.
It becomes the tree and it becomes the rock and the stars, and the man and the animals and the birds; there is no hierarchy. The one who was answering you that God created the world must have been thinking that your question would drop; but out of one answer a thousand and one questions arise. Mind is a question-creating mechanism. So the first thing to understand is: Drop why and immediately you become religious.
Continue with the why, and you remain philosophical. Continue questioning, and you remain in the head. Drop questioning, and suddenly the energy moves in a new dimension: the dimension of the heart. Heart has no questions, and there hides the answer. It will appear paradoxical, but still I would like to say to you: When your questioning stops, the answer comes. And if you go on questioning, the answer will become more and more elusive.
Why are you here? And if it can be answered, you will no longer be a man, you will become a mechanism. This mike is here and there is a reason for it; the why can be answered. The car is there in the porch; the why can be answered. If your why also can be answered, you become a mechanism like a mike or a car; you become a utility, a commodity.
But you are a man, not a machine. Man means freedom. Why is there freedom? You can raise the question, but the question is foolish. The why about man cannot be answered. And if the why about man cannot be answered, how can it be answered when you put it for the ultimate, for God? Even about man the why cannot be answered. About God it is almost impossible even to raise the question in a right way.
