QUESTIONING

Children are known for asking questions. “What is this?” “Who is that?” “Why do we do this?” But as we become adults, many of us question less and less, instead thinking that we “already know” the answers.

The mind that stops questioning also stops growing. In this way, questioning can be a good thing. When we question what we thing we know, we begin to expand our awareness again.

Practice

When a belief comes into your mind today, ask yourself, “Is that true?” The act of questioning can produce a moment of clarity that allows you to see a new truth.
