Although, after a certain point, the world stops demanding an answer to it, this central concern of our being continues to haunt man from the inside, incessantly trying to figure out our purpose of being, the meaning of our existence, what role we have in this great play of the universe. The Bible gives a clear cut answer to this question, by defining explicitly what the purpose of man in this life should be when it says: “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.” To achieve something bigger than the gratification of one’s own needs; to move beyond the mere Self, and enable one to contribute to the world and humanity.
