Quote:I can reformulate this as “the more fundamental questions of life”.
Questions like:
- What do you do in a world in which we should have started reducing our greenhouse gas emissions at least 20 years ago but instead of investing these huge efforts into this energy transmission that is vital to almost all of us, politicians are doing basically nothing and seem to be focused instead on things like “Which Messiah that is destined to come during the apocalypse is the true Messiah”?
Or more simple basic questions:
- This life, existence, being or whatever is here. So what do you do with it once it is here?
(I mean very important questions with very important answers)
How you expect meditation to answer ‘fundamental’ or ‘very important’ questions? People have been looking for the ‘inner self’ since life become more than the never ending quest for the next meal, and these questions still remain unanswered.
I mean, your own navel-gazing and other practices may give you answers that satisfy you, but that really doesn’t begin to approach solutions to real-world problems.
