Why and what make people want to accumulate/achieve ego/objects and at the end need to let it go. What is the purpose of life?
The nature of life and universe as we know and see it is existence
To exist means to make something.
To make something, two things need to come together.
The nature that cannot be explained is that all atoms have the desire to attract and stick together to make bigger things.
This is what make people want to accumulate.
Everything and everyone in the world will have the desire to attract and come together to make bigger things.
The question is not why people accumulate and then have to let it go. The question should be what is a good accumulation/object and what is a bad accumulation/object. All accumulations will be bigger and bigger.
The purpose of life is to exist and flourish better with joy. To exist we need to accumulate. Everything and everyone need to get together.
But which one is good accumulation and which one is bad? Which is the accumulation of joy and which is accumulation of suffering?
This is the confusion in human world.
