Library of Babel

As I read this story, I started to think that Borges was attempting to describe man's mission to "find the meaning of life." His methods struck me as a bit odd; seeing as the meaning of life is, as he implies, some book in the Library (universe), man's quest to find it is quite possibly...well...impossible. I really don't know what to make of it, for the most part, so, here's a link to it http://jubal.westnet.com/hyperdiscordia/library_of_babel.html
