We can only question something from a context we know of.
So, the real questions are still out there.

Is the real context unknown to us?

Do we have context at all?

Why?

Very much of it is unknown to us, yes.

Quote:

A very limited one, yes, constantly subjectively over-evaluated :smile:

Quote:

Why?



Without context we could not exist in any form, me thinks.

I like this one-

The solution to a problem is found within the cause of the problem itself.

Okay Einstien, they are

Oxygen

and Turtles.

Don't you feel smart now for knowing just answers without questions set before them? :hillbilly:


Perhaps you want to clarify that comment on how just answers without correlating problems or questions are of use to you.

Give an example while you're at it if you will. :cool:

Well you give me answers to specific questions?

I want answers to general questions, which aren't hard to manufacture but not easy to answer.

How can I know god more intimately?

How can I obtain peace and happiness constantly?

How do you obtain richness in spirit?

What ideas will work for me to make more successful in life?

easy to come up questions, but harder to answer

Questions are of great use and I don't understand why you said they were of no use in helping us to understand ourselves, others and life.

Answers alone are useless. Answers are always found in the questions, like I proposed in my first reply. For example-

Quote:

How can I know god more intimately?




By intimately knowing God

Quote:

How can I obtain peace and happiness constantly?




Constantly be peaceful and happy

Quote:

How do you obtain richness in spirit?




Be in spirit to be in its riches

Quote:

What ideas will work for me to make me more successful in life?




Successful ones.

:sun:


:peace: :heart:

-Surrender to God. Think about nothing but God. Find his love blooming for you within everything.

-The delusion is that you need constant peace and happiness. Those are just feelings. It is like eating a diet of only pizza. Accept turmoil and grief, you will find that it is only the story that is affected by any of these emotions. Real self is untouched by anything but itself, in its complete simplicity. And you are it.

-Surrender surrender surrender always.

-Lose interest in the story of your life and the story of your 'me'.

:lol:

pointless, if they that easy to answer than why have this forum, I guess what I want is specfic answers to general questions not general answers for general questions and maybe visa versa as well, general answers to specfic questions, rewording my question to make an answer has very little meaning, whats 2+2 the answer is -2+2-2+2

even though I maynot agree, at least this is more specfic and makes an attempt to answer my questions, which I find more useful than rewording my questions, but I guess having questions there to answer makes sense to, so I like both the question and the answer, if thats saying anything

Questions that have no meaning will result in answers that are meaningless.

Tell me, what do those questions you asked mean to you?

Why do you want them answered?

What difference will they make in your life?

Take them one by one.

:peace: :heart:

It really is simple, though. Looking for a closer relationship with God? Well, then pray and surrender. It is why we aren't all awake. We tangle everything up in nonsense and complexity when really everything is extremely simple. The thing is that realizing its simplicity is completely experiential knowledge. I can say how simple it is over and over but it doesn't mean anything. You have to experience it for yourself, so if that's what you want then get cracking.

I don't know what they mean to me, maybe figuring that out is the answer, what actually does have any real meaning, it can mean alot of different things, such as the idea of surrending


I'll say a well thought out meaning is what I want, something with depth,

really this forum has no meaning and either does this argument

Surrender is something you don't learn in a book or by talking to people.  You just have to wing it until you get the idea.  There's no big red surrender button on your chest.  Finding a way to do it anyway is the point :smile:

You believe in God and desire a closer relationship with him, so pray to him sincerely and intimately, asking for help surrendering or with whatever spiritual goal it is that you have.

This forum can be away for people who are seeking 'enlightenment' to join together and discuss ideas.  There is nothing more important than waking up.  So if this forum helps to inspire people then that's pretty meaningful.

:lol: I knew your questions were hollow.

If you havn't questioned what it is you are doing here and have no idea what that answer is then of course your participation will be meaningless to you. Only you can make your experience here meaningful and only you can give meaning to the questions and answers in life.

No one can do that for you.:japsmile:
