Thinking without the thinker

I woke up this morning, determined to look for unanswerable questions. Hungry for philosophy.

By chance, I decided to browse through HN now, rather than later. If I'd come here later, I might have missed this link, and this blog.

I honestly thought I'd done with HN, and that it had served its purpose. It seems that I can still gain much by coming here daily, after all.

And the Krishnamurti site will provide me with a veritable feast of unanswerable questions, enough to satisfy the hunger of my inner philosopher for a long time to come.

This experience (for lack of a good word) is described aptly in the Pali Canon (the main texts of Theravada Buddhism). If you're interested, these are great sources of information:

Approach these texts levelheaded and don't go to them looking for specific answers: maybe you'll find some interesting questions.
