In Stillness Speaks, Eckhart Tolle writes, “True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found.” In Question Everything, I implore my readers to “never stop questioning.” Over the past couple of months many people have been forced into stillness, involuntarily. They have been made to slow the pace of their busy lives so that instead of being stuck in traffic, they are stuck at home where they must come face to face with themselves. For some, the disbelief and the fear have yielded to questioning. There has never been an opportunity like this before, for a great number of people to question what is truly important. Those who have been willing to shut off their televisions and be with the stillness are learning how to access infinite intelligence.
Many are questioning what we are being told and what exactly, we should believe. Information that hints of something malignant in our government is being taken down as quickly as it goes up. Those who might shed light or reveal truth about the motives behind this pandemic, are silenced. If we question the necessity for enforced restrictions, we are labeled conspiracy theorists. I am not a conspiracy theorist; however, there are numerous things that make no sense, so I am questioning a lot of things at this time.
Throughout history, those with great power have been the cause of suffering for millions. Eventually, those powers succumb to a great fall. People can only be suppressed for a time and when they have had enough, they rise up and demand change. Let’s take advantage of the stillness that has been given to us. Let’s use these quiet moments to seek understanding and truth about this situation. Let’s ask the questions that must be asked and seek the answers; and may the answers which come forth, do no harm.
