“For the vast majority of people that awaken and sustain in it, there is something similar among them. Number one is that Truth is the most important thing in their life. Truth and reality is number one on their agenda and usually, it's been that way for a long time." ~ Adyashanti

This is an example of a Jed McKenna quote I find to be a tad, 'unnecessarily annihilistic/brown-bearish.'
It's True, there is no inherent, existent, objective, Absolute "meaning" that can be assigned to be life in general....however, relatively speaking, experientially speaking, appearance-wise, "meaning" is an integral facet of life....the me character, complete with personality traits, which means personal likes/dislikes, cannot help but invoke and assign "meaning" to the various facets of life as they unfold and even in the absence of an SVP, I'd say life 'in general' still invokes a sense of "meaning" ....what's no longer in play in SR though, is a belief in Absolute/objective "meaning/purpose" of the sort that Ina and SDP believe in and assert.
All such "meaning/purpose" is mind-derived....speculation only..theory only.

Niz: It is always the false that makes you suffer, the false desires and fears, the false values and ideas, the false relationships between people. Abandon the false and you are free of pain; truth makes happy, truth liberates.
