What is a question and is there an answer to every question?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"A question is a misunderstanding that reduces the mystery of life to a problem, while true understanding lies in living, not in seeking answers."
According to Osho, a question is a misunderstanding that treats life’s mystery as a problem to solve. No question has a true answer; all answers are make-believe. He responds only to dissolve questioning itself—hammering the mind until one sees life is to be lived, not solved—shifting from mind to no-mind.
We keep asking because we think life is a puzzle, but it’s a mystery—stop chasing answers and just be with life as it is.
