The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.
—Ellen Parr
Questions resonate doubts. Our world and our life are full of questions, where curios minds are not at rest unless they find answers. Questions have tremendous influence on our reality. They shape our individuality and personality. Life is full of mysteries whose secrets are endless. Through the questions we pose, we try to tap the hidden secrets of life, of this world, and other realities we need to govern. They are an integral part of our life. We cannot escape.
The difference between individuals is the type of question they have and the purpose. Whatever form or content they have, questions are the inevitable and inescapable reality of our being, and without them we cannot live. They raise the level of curiosity. Through questions, we govern secrets and mysteries of this cosmos. Questions are one of the keys that unlock the gates of hidden realities. In them we are connecting our reality to deeper world, and we attract the answers. They are useful instruments for the undiscovered to be discovered, and the unknown to be known.
Questions are powerful means for acquiring and developing thirst and knowledge. To question is the very nature of our intellectual reality. But, we may assume or think that we may not find suitable answers for the many subtle questions we have in mind, we may incline to be tired of having questions in mind, for we may receive no result from the many questions we have asked. This may mean that we already know the answer, but we need to hear it from the entity we have asked. In such a case why do we ask? In reality, questions give birth to answers, and answers do in turn give birth to questions, they are always interrelated and in a circle, nothing is outside the other and lives in isolation. They are interconnected. We should not feel tired in asking questions, for it is like breathing for our intellect. If we cannot question, our intellectual life is in danger, and we need to maintain our mind alive, which is sustained by the world of questions at every time and in every condition.
Generally speaking, we may have two broad categories of questions:
The first one relates to our physical reality and intellectual reality, where we ask questions from what we see, hear, taste, smell, feel, and what we observe. These questions deal with the impact created in our minds as result of our interaction with the physical environment. We deal much of these things in the schools we had been through, we discuss with our friends and family and we try to find out by our own selves as well. These questions may have answers from the friends, schools, and from personal observations. These questions have enough institutions and individuals who can give us answers in this world. Our friends, families, teachers, and others can help in finding out the right answer to the questions we have in mind, and we do not need to worry about for that, for this world is self-sufficient for that.
The second type of question deals with abstraction that none of the above would ably answer our questions, for they do not have the proper answer except mere speculation. It does not mean that there are no answers. Since we have limited exposure and knowledge in life, we cannot ably find the answers, but as a result of our constant efforts and search, we can find as many answers as possible. Every one has that type of questions in mind, where all reside in the valley of search, looking for answers that puzzle our mind. Many of us do have different ideas regarding this type of questions, which may vary on the perspective of individuals and their personal life exposure. These questions are the most-subtle issues, and one needs real contemplation to find answers. They are in fact the very hard ones to find answers. These questions may be for few such as, who am I? What is my body made up of? What is the purpose of my existence? What is creation? And other difficult questions that may have different replies and opinions by different people. These types of questions are related to mysteries that are strange to us, and we all try to find out through different faculties we are provided. But, Who can ably provide answers? Who is God? Who created God? Where is God? How can I see God?
Answers
Do we have adequate answers for many of our questions we have in mind? It is indeed a very challenging aspect of our life, for life is full of unexpected events and surprises that sparks questions into our mind, with the curiosity to know the reason and purpose of an incident or any happening that touches our life and our society as well. The existence of questions make our life very interesting for we always live in the mood of expecting a reply to the queries we have. Expectation is the real spices of life that increases suspense and intense desire for living. When we expect something, we are engaged in a mood of eagerness, which augments our keen interest to live. Since our needs are daily changing, our mentality is affected by the constant changes we are having in life, which has definitely an effect on the questions that we raise about every thing. A hungry man may question why he is suffering for basic necessities? But the moment his stomach is satisfied, his question may shift to a different form, that he may ask, like why is he not buying Mercedez Benz automobile? His query will automatically change as the mood moves differently.
