WHY?

WHY?

Has anyone ever found answer to the question why?
Why this happened?
Why that did not happen?
Why bad things happen to good people?
Why good things happen to bad people?
Why, why and more why?
This should be like this
That should have been like this
Why isn't the world tailor made the way I want it to be.
Endless questions.......... but no answers coming!
Looking for some "enlightening" answers
Namaskar

X happens because of Y. It sounds like "why" needs a belief in the law of cause and effect, connectedness and time. Does cause and effect exist?

"Why?" is the wrong question.

Hey, this is some great topic...and so honest regarding the human condition.
Why is fine question,imo.

Well, gee, I am at an advantage here ---2 xs - like when your life flashes in front of you...this has happened to me ---
imagine like a miraculous NDE;
images, people, encounters flashed in my mind's eye...simultaneously giving me the instant insight that every single
solitary thing ...the good, the bad and the ugly was designed deliberately for "this", this very moment...now and now and now.
I have no questions.
I trust...now.
Only trust... in every single event ---and they are not always the greatest events! Seemingly.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

Paraphrasing Swami Sarvapriyananda: On our side of Enlightenment there are only questions and no answer. On the other side there's only an answer and no questions.

More: Nothing is what it seems

"The student asks the Teacher, "Why did the bad man of the village just find 5 gold coins...
Yet the good man of the village got robbed!!!?"
Teacher: "Nothing is as it seems.

The bad man found 5 gold coins, BUT, he lived a very bad life this life....he was supposed to have found a CHEST full of gold.
The good man was supposed to have been tortured and hung
by his feet because of past deeds...but because he was good this life and repented......he only got robbed.

Nothing is what it seems."

I found an answer to the big 'whys' of the current reality, but it is so off-the-wall as to be impossible to understand for someone who wants what they want no ifs ands or buts. Which pretty much describes everyone... I've tried saying it sometimes anyway but it never goes very far sigh...

I'm now have to wonder, how could I really have an answer, since it is obvious noone else will ever buy into it? Am I just fooling myself? Even so the answer itself indicates WHY noone will buy into it among a great many other things....

Such philosophy doesn't really matter though, as the answer I found changed my own life, dramatically, for the better. It is good for me and that has to be enough.

This is the meat of your post, for me.
Then, tell me privately, please.
I would like to hear the answer you found...very much.

Perhaps no one. Limited point of view does not give full view. Like sitting in earth we feel earth is flat. But when u step back to space n view it , u know its round.
