Have we asked ourselves what the root of thought is? Do we observe thought without the roots of past prejudice? Have we asked ourselves what solution is? What is solution a product of? We have been told that solution is a product of thought, knowledge and planning. Is it true? Solution exists only as the dichotomy of problem. Without problem how can solution emerge?

 

When we are involved in a problem without any readymade conclusion, our mind will emerge with solution, be it today or tomorrow.  We are not inventing, but favouring a solution that is a product of the ripening of inner and outer space-time. Solution emerges without any mental effort and thought does not have any place for the emergence of solution.

 

Education is a useless tool of thought and the basic obstacle to the emergence of solution. It is education that limits the infinite capacity of human brain. It feeds calculation, planning, knowledge and the ugly career oriented behaviour pattern and slaughters the true in-built spiritual quality of the child. Have we asked ourselves what action is? Why we look at great people as examples acting exceptionally? Why is it that we seek to act as these great personalities have acted before us?

 

The intention at the core of their actions was not dependant upon happiness or sorrow but based on virtue. Action therefore is a product of intention; observe the action to understand the intention. Action is always finite, but the intention is infinite. The action emerges from the spontaneous part of the mind in relation with the unique need of the particular space-time.

Let us explore together the root of problems, actions, intention and its space-time relativity. Descartes started his line of reasoning by doubting everything, so as to assess the world from a fresh perspective, devoid of any preconceived notions. Let us go ahead with the spirit of Truth and always instead of doubting others; let us doubt ourselves!

 

In fact, there is no meaning in blindly following any given object, including the holy books of the planet earth. If one is spiritually sincere then it is his or her sacred duty to test everything on the touchstone of Truth. 

 

Questioning

J. Krishnamurti says, “The state of the mind that questions is more important than the question itself. Any question may be asked by the slavish mind, and the answer it receives will still be within the limitations of its own slavery”.

Questioning is one of the most ancient tradition of mankind. Man differs from all other animals because of his or her capacity to question and reason. Questions have been at the real nucleus of human civilization and are the inherent cause of all inventions.

 

Existence has no meaning without questioning, but question with unconditional love and affection to master the inner essence of the Truth. In questions, there are no good or bad questions, right or wrong questions, evil or ugly questions because it emerges from the zone of ignorance. All our surrounding developments are an outcome of the interactions and counteractions of different questions.

 

So, never leave any question behind you, involve in it, travel in it, and surpass each question with true spirit of liberation. But never forget to question your own actions, illusions, conclusions, judgments and so on. A man who questions his own answer is a true questioner. Vivekananda once said, "Books are useless to us until our book opens”.
