Q149. What is the purpose of human life?

The purpose of human life is to know God as a real person and serve Him. Thus, to know Lord Krishna as the supreme person and serve Him. The result of devotional service unto Lord Krishna (God) is that at death, the soul will be immediately transferred to the spiritual manifestation where everyone lives in the same body that is completely beautiful, full of bliss/love, full of knowledge, with no old age, no disease, and no misery. “The whole cosmic manifestation is working under My direction. Producing the moving and nonmoving. (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 9.10) “One knows Me as the Supreme Personality of Godhead without a doubt, is the knower of everything and he engages in My devotional service with love.” (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 15.19) One can read the non-Vedic scriptures for millions of years, but one will never be able to describe God. Only the Vedic scriptures describe God, and thus one must read and follow the Vedic scriptures to know and serve God. To fulfill the purpose of human life.
