That is a GRAND question and not easy to answer. The reason why it is not easy to answer is the simple fact that whatever we think is the meaning of life, we don't have the means to proof it. That said, I do believe the idea of the Big Bang theory is one that makes sense. Maybe its the best idea/theory we have today. That doesn't mean it's true though. And even when it's true, we can only guess what was before the Big Bang. Anyways, I'm general triggered by any idea/theory that allows the concept of 'collective consciousness'. That's the reason why I like the 'Holographic Universe' idea a lot. Though that idea can be debunked here and there in my honest opinion. I do like the search for 'what is consciousness' and amongst other follow what Roger Penrose is adding to science about this topic. Recently I came across an article that gave some suggestions of proof to the idea that consciousness is at quantum level. This idea was already proposed by Roger Penrose back in the 90's. Included in this idea, is the fact that conciousness can be decoupled from our brains, biological body. This idea includes the suggestion that our counsiouness survives outside of our body, after our eartly death so to speak. This idea says that the universe gives us consciousness, and when we die we give our consciousness back to the universe. The more interestign about this idea is that our consciousness in the universe, is contained as a 'package'. Here is a more or less recent article about this idea: https://hameroff.arizona.edu/research-overview/overview
Now. I do realise I didn't answer your questions about, why we are here, who puts us here, random (or a planner). I think anything can be the reality. Talking about reality, is there any reality? The Holographic Universe suggest there is not reality at all. Randomness suggests we may need the concept of endless (parallel) universes. When the universe and everything in it is there becasue of some planner, who, what and why this planner than? What made the planner? And why? That's why I kinda lean to idea and theories of randomness, since I don't like any idea/theory that shifts the question about us being here, to some other level. A growing group of people believe we are part of a game. But such theory moves the questions you/we ask about our existance, towards these game developers and players. Thats a weak approach in my opinion.
What are your ideas/theories you believe in? Or inclinded to believe in?
That is interesting I never thought about it that way before it makes sense as well.
This one is true a lot of people start to think this way if I'm not mistaken Elon Musk is the one who made this popular a creator who put us (humans) in a game or world.
I used to believe that god created the world when I was young of course we were told to read about the holy book and all but as I grow older I question everything. to be completely honest I have no idea what ideas or theory to believe in because I have no clear answer I just think it's random (maybe) but the more I read about how earth and humans are able to survive it's too perfect to be random so I'm in between now either god/alien/creator who created everything or everything is randomly happened by accident.
thank you for the answer you have good points there also I don't know about this holographic universe theory I googled it basically it says illusory or the universe is just a hologram this is another interesting idea to explore.

That's what I like about the Holographic Universe: All we see and 'are' is just an imperfection of a homogeneous fabric. It is not real, as far as we can define real anyways. It let us shape things how we want. If for instance all of us believe that water is a solid material, the fluid water we know becomes instantly solid. The 'holographic' part refers to the characteristic of holography and storage thereof. With that, I mean the characteristic that all information of the whole is stored in each infinite small piece. In the good old days, holograms were stored in 2D on photographic emulsion. When pointing two lasers at it in a set way, the hologram is shown in 3D somewhere in the air. Now, when cutting the photo emulsion into 2 pieces. Then point the lasers at one of the two pieces. We can still see the whole hologram, though a little less clear. The information of the holographic object stored is in principle stored at each infinite small piece of photo emulsion. The Holographic Universe idea is based on this principle. All information in the universe is stored at each infinite small spot in the universe. Information about anything is everywhere. This is a kinda super connectedness of everything in the universe. Michael Talbot wrote a book about this back in the 80s. You can find his book at Amazon and all on Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/theholographicuniversebymichaeltalbot1991/mode/2up Pretty interesting read.
That's a lot to process I haven't been that deep into it. I'm a bit lost actually let's see if I understand. Everything is not real because how we define real is definition from us humans but we can shape it to how we want it to be.
Information is stored at each infinite small spot
Interesting you're the second person who recommend me a book to read thank you
Don't get lost 😂 😂 😂 Some scientists with super high IQs got lost and ended up in the nuthouse over the question you asked.
The best approach is by reading about various ideas and theories, if need be, slowly, not all at once 😉 At least, that is my opinion.
Must say, the Holographic Universe is a kinda idea I really like. That said, I believe it's further from the truth to the quantum level of consciousness proposed by Roger Penrose 😉
Roger's idea is more of a theory, with the science behind it. The Holographic Universe has less science behind it, though Einstein wasn't completely negative about this idea, according to the book I mentioned 😉
NJOY reading! 🎶
True some intelligent people of the world goes nuts because they can't find answers to a question I guess deep thinkers such as Nietzsche lost his mind the same way.
Thanks again for the answer finally found something I don't understand which is good.

42? What does it mean?
According to the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, 42 is the meaning of life, the universe and everything. The book is a good one to read if you get a chance. It's witty and insightful.
Ah I see it sounds familiar I must have read it somewhere but I will check this out so far three person ask me to check a book 📚 I got a lot of books to read now haha 😂 thank you again.

Here's a song about the mysteries of life.
Faster horses...Need to find the lyrics for this song hehe

You have to give us something, don't just ask for the secrets of the universe.
To be honest I don't know what to think. That is why I'm here to ask to see if anyone has an answer or an idea of what is the meaning. if you ask me we don't have the meaning we create the meaning ourselves just to push ourselves to live longer or to trick ourselves to have meaning in life basically an illusion to push oneself
But I'm not sure if I'm right I'm just assuming
So for you "meaning" is a personal feeling? That is a very specific take.
How about you what do you think of it?
To understand why we are alive, you must understand how our souls have experienced past lives, and the existance between lives. For that purpose, try reading the book "Journey of Souls" of Dr. Michael Newton, or see the life of Chico Xavier and the books he wrote. From there you will discover the reality most people prefer not to talk about.
That is interesting thank you will check this out

Life in itself seems to have no "meaning". It is a blank page. Each individual can give his life a "meaning" and thereby writes his own book of life.
Life is a blank page 📃 so the individual writes whatever he wish it to.
I love this it make sense as well. Thank you for the answer
