Last night I asked myself, why do people even use computers. The most accurate answer I could come up with is people want answers. They want them so bad, sometimes they make up lies to believe the answers they come up with.

What happens when you reverse it though. What happens when you ask questions, without caring for an answer. Just the curiosity and questioning puts you in a creative state of mind.

Last night I thought about this, this morning, the first morning I’ve awoke before 2 in the afternoon in over a month, Im going to start everything I do with a question, and forget about all the answers soon to die.

I think you’ve just discovered the difference between philosophy and religion.

Philosophy : Questions which may never be answered
Religion : Answers which may never be questioned

I think its more of a want/need to advance. If we didn’t try and do things more efficiently and easier we wouldn’t have fire

what about no questions and no answers?
just observing myself and the world that surrounds me.

What’s the purpose of the questions and who is answering to them.


The questions could exist only if there are answers and vice versa.
The meaning of the answer/question existence is to give us an opportunity to go beyond them and to discover the consciousness. And the first step is to start observing the “myself”.

Just imagine that I don’t know about my existence. I do not have thoughts, feelings, emotions, knowledge, passion, I do not have an opinion. But I can observe. Like a video camera. :)

Then why I need all this questions. It is so peaceful without them.
