Usage of total: My total life mission is to transform the consciousness of... #1 (permalink) Sun May 10, 2009 18:22 pm   Usage of total: My total life mission is to transform the consciousness of...
 

Hello everyone

I'd like to ask what word "total" refers to in the following context:

The purpose of life is to serve. I have committed my life to this purpose. Service is my life mission. My total life mission is to transform the consciousness of humanity and all souls in the universe and enlighten them, in order to create love, peace, and harmony for humanity, Mother Earth, and all universes.

Does 'total' refer to life (mission of my total life) or does it refer to mission (total mission of my life)?
