I agree the meaning of life does come from the questions instead of the answers.
But I must say that I do not agree with your theory of the ego being the boundary of our understanding we have many natural cognitive abilities which allow us to absorb and understand reality. What do you think?
@Bmajor87 I'm sorry if I wasn't clear (I'm often not). I agree 100% with your comment. The mind tends to belittle the natural cognitive abilities through its reliance on thinking as the source of all knowing and understanding. These same natural cognitive abilities (as you put it so well) see thinking and can assess it. What I should have made clear is that our false identity is a slave to the mind and in that enslavement, these natural abilities can atrophy. Thank you!
