Understanding the Meaning of Life

When we use the word ‘meaning’, it is to say what is (i) intended, (ii) expressed, or (iii) indicated. This is the reason why people can derive multiple meanings from the same instance. Similarly, there are differences of opinions in the logical perception of the meaning of life among the people belonging to different fields of expertise and their search has resulted in many scientific, philosophical, psychological, metaphysical, theological, and religious answers to this question. We have discussed these perceptions briefly in this paper to see if there is any common ground in all these perceptions.
