The ultimate goal of meditation is constant attentive awareness, becoming enlightenment.

Takes an instance of time or a lifetime.

Purpose depends on the person. A person could meditate to get smarter or healthier, to get better at ther job, to get laid, to save all sentient beings. It really is completely arbitrary.

The purpose will change too. Because the way you see will change. Meditation is good for changing the way you see.

Meditation comes with no inherently associated ideas. No purpose or meaning. Like pretty much everything.
