our modern society is built on answer finding.

useful, but limited, frameworks—like logic, reasoning, and mathematics—have allowed humans to accomplished great feats of science and engineering. however, the method of answer finding is not an apporach to life. it is not an approach to happiness. it is not an approach to a deep, intimate understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

some questions feel fundamental to the human condition. these include:
        - what is the meaning of life?
        - is there a god? if so, what is god?
        - what should i do with my life?
        - why am i here? what is my purpose?

whether concsiously or not, we grapple with these questions every day — in fact, they are a large part of what makes us human. and often, when approaching these questions, we use the same methods that have worked so well in the rest of society: we try to answer them.

but life, reality, god, the human condition — these are inherently illogical. incomprehensible. undefinable. abstract. divine. and thus, as we yearn to understand our existence in this way, ineveitably, we fail.

many people come to this realization, that the deepest questions in our lives do not have answers. but many then turn away, dismissing these questions as irrelevant, pointless, and a waste of time.

the unanswerability of these questions does not mean they should go away. they still probe at the deepest parts of who we are. it simply means we should change how we approach them.

to get closer to god, don't try to comprehend the divine—for it is fundamentaly uncomprehendable. instead, seek the interaction that is divine.

to find meaning in life, don't attempt to discover the meaning of life. immerse yourself in life. feel life. investigate what makes you feel most human.

to truly understand the world, don't attempt to answer it. become aware of it. interact with it. play with it. and the deepest truths will permeate your very being.
