Each one of us at least once in our lives would have or will ask the question - "WHY ARE WE HERE?" This book is the answer to this very question. Explore the profound journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening that spans across millennia of human history and wisdom. From Brahmā's existential questioning to the scientific and spiritual inquiries that shaped civilizations, this book delves into the fundamental mysteries of existence. It illuminates the Vedas and Upaniṣads, which reveal the soul's eternal nature and the path to liberation from the relentless cycle of birth, death, and suffering. Drawing from ancient wisdom and contemporary insights, the text discusses the transformative power of understanding oneself as sat-cit-ānanda—eternal, knowledgeable, and blissful. It navigates the challenges posed by the mind, described in the Bhagavad Gītā as both friend and foe on the path to self-realization. Through practices like yoga, Dhyāna, bhakti, and sādhanā, readers discover the gateway to Samādhi—the state of unity with Brahman and liberation from worldly entanglements. 'Why Are We Here' invites readers on a journey to uncover the ultimate purpose of life and the profound peace that comes with realizing one's true self.
