From time immemorial people are trying to define life. From the concepts from physics, biology, and even from mathematics, attempts are made to formulate a theoretical definition of life. People define life in different ways, for different purposes.
However, apparently, life can be looked from two views. One is physiological life another is spiritual life.
Physiological life has a motion. That means it has its own power to move with some visible purposes, may be towards works, home, market etc.
Physiological life has a sense of reproduction either through sexual reproduction or by some other means.
Physiological life can consume food and other things in order to survive and grow.
Physiological life has its auto-tendency to grow.
And, physiological life has the power of stimulus response. That means it responds to external stimuli, sensation. It has a nervous system to feel external senses.
This is all about physiological life.
Spiritual life is a sense of feeling and mind. It has tendency to develop spiritually towards eternal peace of mind. Spiritual life’s horizon is limitless. It pursuits for eternal and celestial pleasure.
