What if you have no reason to live? What would you do then?

There is no reason to live in the same way there is no reason to be happy or to play music. You do it because you want to and enjoy doing it and you enjoy doing something because you enjoy it. These are the limits of rationality. There is no point in living or dying. You make your own point, but your point isn’t needed to live. Emotions come first, rationality comes second. Find what excites you. There is no reason to feel excited other than that you want to. If you don’t want to, then there isn’t a reason for that either unless you make it up for yourself you see. Either way, you make it up. Might as well enjoy this one shot miracle that you have. If you are thinking of suicide. I recommend you seek professional help and not make any big decisions. Just wait and weather out the storm. The storm is temporary. Just have faith that after the storm will be a beautiful rainbow.


All Teachers and Teachings are delusion. You have all the answers within you. The first step on the journey to Enlightenment is questioning all the beliefs and teachings you have ever received. Teachers/Teachings are a distraction/maya at the highest level. There comes a point where you need to trust in your own innate knowledge and derive your own insights into the nature of reality. Teachers make a living and lifestyle of selling you water by the river. You don’t need them. All you need is an insatiable desire for truth and then seriously contemplate reality and uncover all that is false.

Otherwise Thanks for sharing your perspectives.

Hardwired survival instinct.

Fear of death. 

Not making my parents sad (me committing suicide would make them sad).

A small belief that maybe we are here to learn and grow, and that suicide would impede that process.
