Buddha says:
"An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea."
"He who experiences the unity of life sees his own Self in all beings, and all beings in his own Self, and looks on everything with an impartial eye."

Innocent enquirers are known as jijnasu, "those who are inquisitive." These innocent enquirers are society's hope for the future. Most intelligent and innocent young children are inquisitive: they question their parents about many things and remember the answers. When these bright young boys and girls receive proper guidance from parents and teachers who can lucidly answer their queries, they easily understand each point and gradually develop fine brains. From among these intelligent souls, those who are especially pious begin to keenly enquire about God and other spiritual topics. Others, who pursue ignoble material knowledge, cannot become successful in life and end up beating the chaff. Those who are inquisitive about the self and the Absolute Truth, Brahman, quickly surrender to Lord Krishna and His devotees. Such surrender proves their good measure of piety brought over from their previous births. Beginning with fundamental enquiries about Brahman, they swiftly become elevated, understand the statement of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad-gita (14.27) that He is the basis of the impersonal Brahman, and begin to worship Him.

There is only one question to ask. Who am I? When answered, there will be no other questions.

Yes, I find also that the best question is asked in silence.

Ahh-- the intellectual mind stumped for words to questions that remain unasked. I am so sorry for your predicament. I feel your pain.

I guess it is, because I have to answer a question.
