A rather amusing Monty Python film

"How are you today, Mr. Creosote?"

"Better."

"Better?"

"Better get a bucket; I'm gonna throw up."

Who am I and what do I exist for?
Why was I born?
Where did I come from?
Where am I heading?

Have I already been here? Will I return here?
What is my role in the universe?

Can I really learn to know myself and those around me?

Is it possible for me to understand the reasons for everything that
happens to me in my life?
What are the reasons for all the agony and suffering in the world ,
and is it possible to prevent it somehow?
Can I attain complete fulfillment in this lifetime, and if so how?

The single answer to all these questions is attaining the perfection
of upper world, which is filled with pleasures. This is the essence of
the wisdom of Kabbalah, which provides a practical method for
understanding the goal of creation and our purpose in life: achieving
tranquility, eternity, and unbounded joy while still living in this
world. In this manner a person takes control over his life and
transcends the boundaries of time and space.

Our goal is to assist you embark on the first stages of the path to
spiritual ascent and attainment of the spiritual realms.

"The single answer to all these questions is attaining the perfection
of upper world, which is filled with pleasures."

   How convenient that the Universe dangles such carrots for our benefit.

Life is meaningless. Any meaning is you to impose. Impose a meaning
now, or live a meaningless life.
