Do you have the right questions????

The seeker asked, Why do bad things happen to good people? The Pastor replied, When the question itself is wrong, how do you expect me to answer? The question should have been, 'What happens to good people when bad things happen to them' and the reply is, 'They become better people'!

It is not our intelligence, but it is the direction of our intelligence that determines the pace of our progress. And, our intelligence can be directed,if only we know, how to ask the right questions. Ask, Why me? for all your troubles and listen to the response of your intelligence. Again ask,Why me? for all your countless blessings and again listen to the voice of your intelligence. Experience the difference. Experience the power of questions. Questions have great power. One right question asked at the right time can change the direction of our intelligence, and thus change the direction of our life.

Why is this happening to me? sets your intelligence in one direction,which will lead you to self-pity, while in the same scenario ask, What can I learn from this? and this will direct you to a higher maturity. Why does she not understand me? will lead your intelligence to blame the other and it makes you feel victimised. Instead try What should my approach be to make her understand me? and you will feel you are still in control of the situation. It puts you in a more resourceful and responsible position.

If you are feeling stagnant, if you are not growing at the pace at which you can grow, if you are going in the direction that will not lead you to your goals, if you are encountering issues that are repetitive in nature, then be sure, you are not asking the right questions. Hence, you are not directing your intelligence right.

Simple questions like,What next,How can I do what I am already doing even better, What is the worst that can possibly happen can completely change the way you perceive life. Our intelligence has an inherent compulsion to answer any question that is posed to it, either by you or by
the world. So, choose your questions and direct your intelligence in constructive ways.

One man asked, Why is the apple falling down? and the world has not been the same ever since. In fact, all inventions and discoveries begin with a question. Arjuna with his questions gave a direction to Krishna's intelligence, which is the Bhagavad-Gita.

It doesn't matter if you don't have all the answers. What truly matters is, do you have the right questions? Your intelligence is waiting Ask and you shall receive.
