The Whisper Has The Answer, What Is Your Question?

Ever asked a question and got an answer, but soon realized that the answer you received wasn’t the answer you were actually looking for? Hopefully, you clarified and re-asked your question to get a useful answer the second time. Asking the right question, a high-quality question, will either give you the answer you are looking for or prepare the path for the answer to find its way to you.
In the book ‘Breaking The Rules’ author Kurt Wright says that asking the right question will open you to the sea of infinite possibilities and intuitive awareness. That “sea” of infinite possibilities and the intuitive guidance that opens awareness is what we call The Whisper.
Have you ever asked yourself why some un-preferred situation always seems to happen to you again and again? Stop and think about it. Do you really want an answer to that question? Wouldn’t you really like to know what you need to know or learn to ensure that it never happens again? Don’t you want to know what is the higher perfection trying to reveal itself through this situation?
Some questions are just outright useless and they don’t access the intuitive wisdom of the Whisper! Low quality questions create never-ending loops on the road to no-where! If the question you are asking does not elicit a constructive or effective answer, (provide clarity or produce your outcome or a solution), it is time to ask another question; a question that elicits the Whisper’s wisdom. Continue to refine your questions until you have formulated the exact right question. You will know you have the right question by how it feels when you ask it, and by the answer that it elicits. You’ll feel an ‘oh yes’ energy! It will feel razor-sharp, like a laser beam, and you’ll know that you have the right questions.
Here are some examples of useless questions—questions that lead no where.
Why is this happening to me again?
Why doesn’t this ever change?
When you ask a high-quality question, you will recognize the answer as coming from the Whisper because it’s typically not logical. You’ll notice the logical part of you arguing that what you received just cannot be the answer.
“It’s not logical!” it will scream. Answers that are accompanied by the word ‘because’ are justifications from the logical mind, and are not intuitive. Beware when your answers are logical and produce agreement with the ego. I’m not saying don’t ever follow logic; there are times to do that. Especially when balancing your checkbook. I am pointing to the functions of the ego, which is always justified by logic. Logic is not the way of the Whisper. When you follow the advice of the Whisper, even though not logical, you will see in time just how logical and right the answer really is!
You have already had the experience of following the Whisper many times in your life. You felt a tug to do, or not do, something. Later you were so glad you followed even though, at the time, it didn’t make sense.
Two of the most powerful questions you can ever ask are specific, yet open-ended, intuitive questions allowing your Whisper to surface. Simply insert your situation or challenge into the line.
• In regards to (situation or challenge) what do I need to know?
• In regards to (situation or challenge) what am I to learn from this?
The right questions are vital if you want clear direction and guidance. This is not to mean “right” in the sense of good or bad, or right or wrong. But rather, right in the sense of:
Will this question lead me to the outcome, answer, or solution?
Is the question providing clarity?
Does it produce the affirmative outcome I am seeking?
If not, clarify the question and ask again. You will soon get to the right question. The quality of your question will either lead you on a path of endless loops and never ending questions, or to the doorway of infinite wisdom: the inner chamber of the Whisper.
