Solidly Defeating Existentialism

According to the philosophy known as existentialism life has no meaning and thus we are compelled to invent or create what is the meaning of life according to our imagination. But if life truly has no meaning, why would we feel compelled to invent some meaning?

In this regard consider this example: The thirst for water exists because water exists. If there was no such thing as water, the thirst for water would not exist. Similarly, the thirst for the meaning of life exists because the meaning of life factually exists.

Therefore instead of denying that life has meaning, we should try to find out what is the meaning of life. The answer is very simple. Lord Krishna is emanating from Himself for the purpose of enjoying a personal loving relationship with each and every one of us. Thus the purpose and meaning of our existence, our life is simply to love Krishna.

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom

Question: How Does It Feel to Have Sex?

Dear Sir,
My sex desire is finished. But still I want to experience that how does it feel when someone performs sex?
Kindly show me the path.

Hare Krishna

Answer: You Should Not Be Curious About That

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Kindly note that by asking such a question you have made it clear that your sex desire has not finished. So instead of being curious about what is the pleasure of sexual intercourse, which is nothing more that the scratching of
an itch, you should be curious about what is the pleasure of awakening pure love of God within you heart.

Otherwise in your next birth you may find yourself in the body of a hog enjoying the taste of eating fresh stool and having sex with your mother, sister, and daughter.

I hope this meets you in the best of health and in a learning mood.

Your ever well-wisher,
