In biology and cosmology alike (for both are two sides of the same coin) it could and it should be said that life is self celebrating itself as differentiated so not to be by itself and with this realization, which is rather profound, comes the equally profound understanding that the purpose of self, or the meaning of life as we call it, is nothing else but companionship otherwise known as love. So if i were to talk to a theologist about allah, buddha or god; it would certainly not be incorrect to state the purpose of god is love, and, similarly so, if i were to talk to a cosmologist; it would certainly not be incorrect to state that the purpose of the cosmos is love.
