The Dalai Lama said something like this: The meaning of life is to achive happiness without having a reason for it (happiness). Sounds deep. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
And biologists will say we exist in order to reproduce. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I didn't know that! (The quotes were taken directly from Vol. 4 of W. T. Jones' A History of Western Philosophy, punctuation marks and all. [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Actually I read somewhere: "What isn't the meaning of life? Everything is life." This is from The Myth of Freedom by the Tibetan Buddhist philosopher Chogyam Trungpa. He was quoting someone else with respect to this little piece of wit, though, and he also viewed this answer as being... too 'pat', too simplistic...
