Then why do we ask questions we know the
answers for? Here comes the ego or excessive pride. Strange! Right ! Yes it is.
We know the answer already but who is going to validate it? We need somebody to
validate it. We find one in the form of a “Guru” a “Master” or somebody who
will validate or simply whose answer matches with ours's. Haven’t you observed
that while listening to such a person
you suddenly feel glad or overwhelmed. That is nothing but you are satisfying
your ego of knowing it. You know what he knows ,you also know it. You get what
you want, you take it and if you don’t get what you want to go somewhere else.
The simple thing here is “You cannot search
for something which you do no know”. The searching itself implies that you know
it and you are looking for it. How can you look for something which you do not
know? Now there will be options or I would say it preconception as answers, so
will be there questions for the options. In other words we have many questions
which have the same source ,the knowledge we have gathered over a period of
time. The nature of the things to which we question is such that we cannot have
the question without knowing the answer already.
There is no meaningful communication when
we ask question to our self or to somebody. And then we are in a dilemma and we
need somebody to validate it. If we look deep into the questions we have ,we
will find that all the questions we have are actually the variations of just
one question. If the questions were actually solvable the question would have
disappeared and so the variations. But it does not happen the way it should
because of the simply reason that we are trying to find answer to question we already
have answer to. That is the reason why the questions keep on coming. Another
reason is we rely on the incorrect answers invented by these teachers, guru’s,
masters, society, religion.
If the answers are legit the questions
disappear. They are interdependent. Our questions and answers go together.
