Answers..............................

I am planning to study Further. What would you advise me? I am planning to invest in stock market, is it safe to do it? I want to settle abroad, which is the best place to be at? Is training a better career choice? Do you think this year will be a better year as compared to 2021?

Wait, before you go any further……. How many of you had immediate answers in your mind after reading the above few questions? Most of us do.  We love to answer. Isn’t it and especially when you are confident about the answer? Try this question below

What is your view on the renaissance movement in the 12th Century in Spain during British Empire?

We don’t like this question, do we? The brain immediately dislikes anything that it doesnt approve of and that's why we don't like the above question.

Answers!!!!!!

Answers have a lot of meaning in our life. Answers gives us a sense of completeness and confidence. Answers are necessary to measure depth of knowledge. We must answer questions in exams to qualify as a bright student. I grew up with a subconscious learning that if I answer correctly to the questions in the class, every one will clap for me and praise me. They will look at me as a genius student and the teacher will like me. Afterall every student I guess wants to be his/her teacher’s favorite.

The teacher would have the same question for each student yet the grades differed in the class. It depended on who gives the most accurate answer taught by the teacher. Every teacher told us to study the right answers.

Yet this did not guarantee success in real life. We grew up with toiling day in day out to remember answers to the T & yet some where we failed in life inspite being a topper in class. We grew up searching answers, it started in class & then college and then Corporate life. We are still searching and most of us die without realizing that there are no real Answers!

Answers in our academics are just illusions that makes us feel that we are right about what we know.  It blinds us and also makes us caged. I met one of my teacher’s few days back and unfortunately, he was on his death bed counting the last few moments of his life and he told us, he spent his life asking students to prepare the answers from the book & he helped lakhs of students on how to answer but not a single one on how to question & that is the biggest regret he has in his life.  

He died with an unanswered question himself, why did I not teach my students to question?

With 20 years in Education and 20 in Corporate life, one big learning of my life is, In real life, we don’t need to give right answers, we need to ask the right questions and those questions will define how our life will be shaped. Whom to Ask? That will be your choice.

In my case, I am asking the source of creation, the Universe. I believe, The Universe has the answers to every question we ask but unfortunately many of us were never trained to ask! Time to realign the learning and ask the right source what ever questions you want to ask & you will get the answer. You can choose your source based on your beliefs, It could be anyone, it could be God, the Universe, your mind, Your parents and the list can go on…………………. The objective is to ASK.

So what if the Universe or whatever your source is, agreed to answer your questions, what would you ask?

I have many questions in my mind and I am hopeful on getting the answers shortly….. sharing a few for your reference, if you have the same questions, do let me know and let’s together learn to ask Questions together and let’s see where do the answers come from.

Good Luck!!!

My Questions:

How are thoughts created?

Who am I? What is my purpose? Why am I born? Why am I born to my parents? What does the Universe expect from me? Why am I born on this planet? Is it true there is no life on other planets? Why did I travel so many places? Why only a few left an impression on me?

Why are few people still in my life, while most no longer exist? What are feelings?

Why do we fear failure? who installed fear in us? Why am I afraid of darkness? What will happen if I conquer my fear?  Why do we believe when people criticize us? A population of billions & we are worried about a few people’s opinion about us.

And a billion more questions to be answered before I rest forever...….
