We so much want answers to the questions of the universe. This is natural and leads to the discovery of truths and wonders beyond the imagination. And yet, at a certain point the questions themselves can be the obstacle to the answers we seek.
Answers that are beyond the capability of thought to comprehend—cannot be found by thinking about the questions. These answers come through intuitive knowing that arises in stillness. Beyond the threshold of stillness there is no mental activity, not even questions.
At a certain point we must let go of the great questions, just as a pole-vaulter must let go of the pole to get over the bar. Answers will come, even to questions unformed.
