Let us look at the fundamental desires of Man: purpose, knowledge, union, love,wisdom, peace & happiness, ecstasy and finally liberation.
Purpose: When your purpose is bigger than you, you have a calling.” - J.C. Maxwell
“The sole purpose of man on earth is to manifest his Creator. The soul desire of man on earth is to find peace and happiness.
You do not need to define your purpose when in time your purpose will merely arise and be known by you. Do not live by definitions. Live by experience and understanding.
Your Knowledge is your purpose. Each of us has been sent into the world for a greater purpose, waiting to be discovered. This greater purpose resides beyond the realm and the reach of the intellect, in Knowledge deep within us.
This is your greater purpose in life: to keep Knowledge alive in the world.
There is only one good: knowledge, and one evil: ignorance” - Socrates

“It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” - Jesus
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee (…)” -Jesus
You must have confidence in yourself based upon your KNOWLEDGE, for knowledge is your power, not faith or belief. (…) Your weakness lies in asking God to fulfill your desire instead of asking Him to give you the knowledge to work WITH Him in the fulfilling of a universal desire.” - Walter Russell
Along with Knowledge comes the Wisdom of how to use Knowledge in the world. Thus, Knowledge is the source of your understanding and Wisdom is learning how to apply it meaningfully and constructively in the world.” - M.V. Summers
“Wisdom is not something that you possess alone. It represents a relationship— your relationship with the Greater Power in your life and with Creation itself.Wisdom must be able to guide and instruct you in areas which are beyond your understanding and capacity.” - M.V. Summers
