What is the purpose of a Jew how do Jewish people live a purposeful life here on Earth What is the Jewish Obligation What about Jews and karma HELP?
There are many different opinions on this. There are some answers:
Answer
The purpose for Jewish person on Earth is a concept called Tikkun Olam, "repairing the world." In simple terms, it is a requirement to make the world a better place.
The concept of Karma doesn't exist in Judaism, but certainly there is a sense that your actions have deep consequences.
Answer
Boy! Did you pick a good one!!
The purpose of a Jew is to educate the world about God. As a nation they are to be priests to the world. (Exodus 19:6). Within themselves they are to worship The ONE God and they have a system in place for this. See Leviticus.
Jews lead purposeful lives by learning more about the "instructions" every day and applying it to themselves and others. When one reflects correct education, others around them learn. This is what Jesus meant when he gave the parable of the lampstand. You reflect honor on your God when you behave in the manner prescribed by The Bible.
The Jewish Obligation is to love God. This is precisely spelled out in the Shema, (Deuteronomy 6:4) and the Vayahavta (Deuteronomy 6:5). When one loves God and fears God with reverential awe (not fear as in being afraid), one does the commands that the Ruler gives. These are written in Leviticus.
Now...as far as karma...Karma is a Buddist concept that impersonal chance can influence your life. While it is true that a chance encounter can profoundly change your circumstance, Jews believe that God is the Author of all circumstances. Any circumstance is an opportunity to learn and grow in the Way of God. So the concept of karma is not a Jewish concept.
