The reason why the universe is eternal is that it does not live for itself

About This Quote

The reason why the universe is eternal is that it does not live for itself. It lives for us, its inhabitants. The universe lives for us all because we are living here. The life of the universe is our life, and that is why it goes on forever.

This is the view of the Vedanta philosophy, where the self must be eternal. This concept can be defined as “That which does not live for itself, but for someone else.”
