Is the meaning of this life to prepare ourselves for the next? 1

Makes sense to me. I watched a video on the different plains of existence that sounded legit. Even if it's all poppycock it's a reasonable way to live and approach things.
Notes and what i took from this idea.
You get what you put in, and people get what they deserve. The meaning of life is to conquer yourself. Fix yourself. Prepare yourself. Help others, help others achieve this. To enter the next realm.
If not, reincarnation. If controlled by sexual desire and anger, same primitive qualities of an animal- you will be reborn an animal.
What your mind is like is what you will be, not only in this world but the next.
Keep in mind i had a chart of the Different plains of existence in front of me while i was writing this. If any of this speaks to you take in mind this is just a fraction of the topic, not a sum up and complete report.
And of course my personal belief, have fun.

We are all just seismic boners on creation, everyone of us is a stiffy from the universe waiting to explode and die down into obscenity.

The meaning of this life is to make the most of the present moment. Nothing you can do to change the past, so focus on making the best future that you can for yourself, and for others you care about as well, whether they be family members or homeless people on the streets. Love others with all the strength in your heart and forgive those who have wronged you. Learn what you can from the lessons that life teaches you, and accept responsibility for any bad choices that you make. We are all supposed to help each other with the means we have, whether they be few or many. There's a lot of good people in this world, so I suppose you could say the meaning of life is to promote the good and spread love throughout the planet. There is hope to unify all people, regardless of religion, color, gender, age, income, and whatever other labels society places upon people.

I can come to terms with the math behind this. Is there a finite number of souls that are reincarnating?
If you can descend from human level to animal level can it work in reverse? Do animals ascend to humanity? How the hell does that work?

Thank you first and formost. But still your response "make the most out of the moment" to me can be misinterpreted as "indulge and please the ego" But i do get what you mean.
In addition to helping others and all the nice things you said, i still think preparing yourself for the next remains paramount.

Yes i believe once an animal lives it's life, good or not it naturally gets another go in a higher state.
I believe the number depends on us and we have control on how many we bring into existence. And that we are dealing with a infinite playground.

I wasn't trying to make my post about the ego at all. I was trying to make the focus on helping others and doing what's right. From my own experiences in life, the lessons we learn do prepare us for the next dimension. Yet if someone focuses too much on what comes after this world and doesn't spend enough time paying attention to this world, there's a lot of lessons that they could miss. The ego is concerned with maintaining itself and being selfish, so ego death is actually a good thing, when you do things to help others or try to comfort them in difficult times you are showing a selfless action of love for your fellow man, these actions transcend the selfish ego

Thats my understanding too.
I recently have thought that maybe our reason for being here is that we are not fully prepared for the spirit world, for whatever reason. Maybe lack of wisdom or experience. Or both.
And living on Earth gives us that wisdom orr experience so wee can enter the higher realms of experiencing the Universe and then we can choose (maybe) to be reborn?
It does ease my mind a little to know that this life might not be the last, but instead a eternal cycling of life-death-rebirth.

Seems like a silly way to live since we know of no guarantee of a next life. I guess it all comes down to faith.

you're onto something here, I believe that it is important for us to awaken during this lifetime and remember where we came from. we are all connected, everyone on this site is connected, hell everybody in the world is, we all came from the same source. does remembering where we came from make life perfect? no there are still difficult experiences in one's life but if you feel like heaven supports your actions in life, life becomes an even more interesting and love filled experience.
there's a lot we can learn from our experiences on this planet, I think the more we interact with others who seem different to us, the more we learn a little about life and what it means to be human. there are things we learn in human form that we just can't learn otherwise, say in spiritual form where reality can be created/altered just by one's thoughts. here on earth we can create things (within limits), we can do things alone, but most times it's much easier to work with others who have similar goals and motivations.
perhaps we are not fully prepared for the spiritual world since we are here, that may have only been where we were created, but I think it goes deeper than that. if you believe in past lives and existences then maybe we came here because we wanted to experience something outside of the spiritual world, and that's what life is, an experience or game for us outside the spiritual realm. what's so exciting is that the more one realizes there is a spiritual world that exists alongside this world, the more "interesting" occurrences one will begin to notice in this world because the spiritual world is seeping through so to say.
it's hard to put all of these feelings in words, but I feel like we know the spiritual realm very well and we came to earth as part of a game to learn and we purposely forgot where we came from, at least for a little bit. however I know there are many who are waking up and remembering that realm of infinite potential and creation, and in some ways, the two realities have always seeped into another, that's why we have individuals who can sense spiritual entities (psychics) and individuals who can feel the emotions of others (empaths). and I mean people who really have these abilities, not frauds or those looking to deceive others.

I have had some interesting experiences in my life that I think i will share with this community soon. see my post above for a small preview of what's to come!

Even a life-long prosperity is but one cup of sake; A life of forty-nine years is passed in a dream; I know not what life is, nor death. Year in year out-all but a dream. Both Heaven and Hell are left behind; I stand in the moonlit dawn, Free from clouds of attachment.
