Purpose of life in Your religion

Materialism/Animism
Nature is created; it is not God.

Nothing in this universe composed matter or energy is either created or destroyed, it only changes form. All the elements that construct our natural world, our planet, and allow for life was not “created” by a God, it was formed out of the fusion within stars. Like what Napoleon said…

In the law of attraction, from my opinion and the information I've gathered, the purpose of life is to create a positive environment for yourself and others. To uplift and help others and yourself progress in your spiritual and mortal journey.

The Book Genesis says: Be fruitful and multiply.
Jesus Christ says, 'First of all seek you the kingdom of God and its righteousness and all things will be given unto you.
The original purpose of human beings as intended by God is to be fruitful and multiply. It means to manifest divine attributes of love and compassion in human relationships. It is not limited to the physical multiplication of children.
Our life becomes fruitful only when our ego comes to an end our human consciousness becomes a transparent instrument of God.
Jesus said,search for the kingdom of God and its righteousness's(dharma). Searching for the kingdom of God is to search for the real meaning of our life. It is to transform our life into the life of God and our actions into the actions of God. The dharma or righteousness of the kingdom is Unfolding. Unfolding is the action that comes from realizing our oneness with God, oneness with the whole of humanity and oneness with the whole of creation. Unfolding comes from the fullness(purnam) of being. (Becoming is the movement of the ego). For this we need to die to all identifications that separate us from God and one another. Jesus said, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies it remains alone but when it dies it gives a might harvest. If we die to our ego then we are united with God and then our life becomes fruitful. It is the life of one hundred percent love of God and one hundred percent love of neighbour.
As a synthesis: the purpose of life is to realize our oneness with God and manifesting that oneness in our human relationships.

You are right.

Like Moses said:

The prime teaching of Moses

4. Hear, O Israel: The Lord is our God; the Lord is one.
5. And you shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your means.
6. And these words, which I command you this day, shall be upon your heart.
7. And you shall teach them to your sons and speak of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk on the way, and when you lie down and when you rise up.
8. And you shall bind them for a sign upon your hand, and they shall be for ornaments between your eyes.
9. And you shall inscribe them upon the doorposts of your house and upon your gates.

Like Jesus said:

Core teachings of Jesus.

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Matthew 22:36-40

Matthew 22:36-40 -

Like Quran says:

[51:57] And I* have not created the Jinn** and the men but that they may worship Me.
The Holy Quran Arabic text with Translation in English text and Search Engine - Al Islam Online

* The One-True-God
