What is the point of becoming a Buddha? Why do we want this? Should it be considered the goal of life?
To be a Buddha is the journey of life. It is what gives us meaning to live. We live this life to find meaning and happiness.
To be a Buddha is not a goal, it is the journey. A goal makes it seem like it is something that we work for and achieve by self-efforts. The journey is to realize that the ego-self is not real and that ego-self is only temporary.
It is only with humility and gratitude that we realize that self-efforts are useless, and then we can allow Infinite Wisdom and Compassion to be a part of our life.
