Big Questions
Big Questions are the ultimate questions of existence and cosmology. Big Questions are existential or spiritual questions of existence, purpose, place, and so on. Examples of Big Questions include:
- Who Am I?
- Where did I come from?
- What is the purpose of my existence or "What is life's chief concern?" [1]
- What is the nature of God?
- What is the nature of creation.
Notes
Under conditions of "normal consciousness", big questions are often answered by institutions setup specifically to provide them (e.g. Religion.) That is, when the individual physical unit is not Connected to the Fabric of Consciousness, organizations may arise that provide choreographed answers to these critical questions of identity and origin.
Under ideal circumstances, individuals will find a supportive social fabric that encourages Right Thought, Right Action, and Right Environment with a view towards encouraging inner exploration, authentic Connection, and personal discovery of core spiritual truths, and our shared spiritual heritage.
