We can say that it is possible to (1) find the answers to all existential questions, or (2) discover that all such questions are misconceived. Same same. The key is sincerity of purpose and persistence. Bear in mind what you want to know, and then turn over the questions to something deeper than mind. Shift attention away from thought to what can be seen or heard. "Follow the white line." Focus upon what's happening, and realizations will spring forth accordingly.
Do the dishes need to be done? Then do that task with full attention. If thoughts appear, shift attention away from them to what you can see or hear. Remain present and attentive. When you look and listen, you are interacting with the world differently than when you think. The mind is a labyrinth, and thoughts are very "sticky." Don't stay stuck! Get free by becoming lost in the living truth. Let the body guide you home.
