“Curiosity is an essential quality in anyone who seeks truth. Intrigue, openness, questioning – all of these attitudes lend themselves to seeing through the veil and experiencing direct reality. But are there any questions that don’t exactly further the process of awakening? Yes. Here’s why:

We must look beyond the questions directly and ask ourselves: Why am I asking this question? Is it out of genuine interest? Or is it going to offer clarity or further confusion? These are important check-ins. Why? Because much of the time, we already have the answers. We already have the map, simple and pure, that does not need to be further complicated.
