You are making a huge amount of assumptions.

This talk about "a true self" sounds like a mumbo jumbo Opera Winfrey conference.

Untrue, some of us are working towards eternity as opposed to some absurd void.

This is a oxymoron, motivation in a void, it's a freaking void.

The larger picture? God exists and we have a purpose and we know what we're doing.

Maslow's pyramids of needs is very nice but I guess your out of luck if you live in grinding poverty…..I'll put my stake on the Resurrection.

Why all do the videos with this subject matter have a monotone narration?

the meaning of life is the warmth from a sweater we knit ourselves… – you find your own meaning in your own chosen purpose, goal, ideology and find your own deeper meaning in the pursuit of that purpose, goal, ideology…

The universe didn't give us a blank page to write on. So much has already been done that has lead to this point. What we can make, or create with this time is sadly very limited

What if there is no self? What if one's sense of self is an illusion? That is what the non dual perspective suggests, that there is and never was a self. There is nothing behind everything. Only a self needs to create meaning and purpose. Once the self is recognized to have never been then the seeking for meaning and purpose evaporates. And that's the truth, that there is no reason or purpose for this apparent universe. And there is no one and nothing behind it. It is all a forever unknowable mystery.

I imagine that if life did have an absolute true unarguable meaning, we would have raised against it and said we wanted TO BE FREE.

"The Void is both the source of nothingness and, at the very same time, the source of everythingness. In short, the void is the limitless context in which your entire world is both appearing and disappearing."

You are giving too much importance to life. If it were infinite, then it would make sense. But this is a miserable 50-90 years. As pathetic as our brains. This is just the beginning of the journey.
By the last sentence, I mean that our species is only the beginning of really intelligent life. Compared to what we might be, we're just ants for now.

Humbleness leads to honesty and righteousness! Narcissism/Pride leads to lies and failure.

Truth is neither optimistic nor pessimistic, truth is just that…most of these words derive from the social mind of society and intellectualism..the path to direct truth is not group work for an individual..the path is always yours and yours alone
Anything else is just a prescription that leads to more prescriptions

Life is a joke, don't take it seriously otherwise you may die. Don't believe me ? Try opposite, you will die.
