Rupert Spira | What Is Our Highest Purpose? @rupertspira | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
This discussion about our highest purpose and God’s purpose starts with a question relating to Rupert’s dream analogy: Is there an intelligence within infinite consciousness that reflects on and discerns what actions are motivated by love?

Rupert says ‘The intelligence that your mind has to discriminate between actions that are motivated by love and those that are not is the intelligence that is innate in God’s mind. Your discriminating faculties are a reflection of that intelligence, and therefore your discrimination is used in service of that infinite intelligence – another name for which is “love”.

‘Infinite being has no purpose. There would have to be two things for there to be a purpose – how things are now, and how things are in the future. In God’s mind there’s just itself. There’s nowhere to go, nothing to become and nothing to achieve. But, as soon as God’s infinite mind is localised as an apparently separate self, the duality and sense of purpose that attends it begins.

‘So, what would the ultimate purpose of a human being be? It would be to reflect the nature of reality, or the unity of being, before it is refracted into a finite mind. What does that look like in a human mind? Prayer and praise. Prayer is the inward-facing path, or the return to being, and praise is the outward-facing path, or the way we express and share the qualities of being with humanity.’
