Yes agreed.
Many people do not like to be questioned and find a false security in believing that they know and transmit that "knowing" to others.
The Buddha said to never take what even he said without study and self-examination.
Perhaps our lives are more directed by the questions we carry (koans) than by actually finding the answer?
Any thoughts anyone?
Thanks for reading and responding.
