Reflection For The Art of Focus

Why is it important to ask questions?

सवाल पूछना क्यों ज़रूरी है? 

The word "ASK" stands for always seeking knowledge, so asking questions helps you explore new things and learn. If we are curious to know about anything, we should rise and ask about it to understand it better. Sometimes we feel nervous and feel scared of asking anything new people and those who are older than us. It happens because we think we might speak something unusual and wrong, but we should be confident enough to ask. Finally, our level of confidence and our speaking skill level will develop. 

TENZIN JAMBEY

Asking questions is a critical element of the learning process. Questioning helps students direct their learning by merging their prior knowledge and new information to make sense of these ideas. We ask questions to learn more details about something and answer questions to provide more information. Asking and answering questions is part of how we know and our social skills; we ask and answer questions to be polite and build and maintain relationships.

Asking questions not only clears your doubts but also teaches you how to overcome come to those difficulties in your life. It even gives a better understanding and broadens our knowledge of that particular situation. I agree that asking questions is necessary since it develops our speaking and communication skills. It can also be beneficial to extend any conversation. Asking also teaches us to stand out from the crowd and clear our doubts confidently. In this new generation, many people struggle to ask questions or clear their doubts since they don't get enough confidence to do it. Instead, they should know that asking questions can only benefit them and be very useful at the moment and in the future.

Why is it necessary to ask questions? - Nishan Karki

 Why is it necessary to ask questions?

Every person in the world has questions ranging in their minds. Questions indicate desire and curiosity to know something by asking others. People may ask questions to several people like parents, teachers, relatives, friends, brothers, sisters and many more people. Every time different questions come into people's minds.

There are several reasons for the necessity of asking questions. We ask questions to get information about different things. Asking questions helps us to develop our thinking skills, communication skills, social skills, etc. It also increases our general knowledge or knowledge about different things. Thus it is necessary and essential to ask questions.

Travellers and Death - Reveda Bhatt

“The dead are not powerless.

Dead, did I say?

There is no death, only a change of worlds.”

‘Will I die? Or will I just leave my body?’

Oh! Wait! Let me reframe a part of my question-“the” body.

Well, hello, “travellers.”

Don’t like to travel? Still travellers.

Why?

Let’s see.

This writing, I guess, could seem to be an interactive session because I have a lot of questions there

is no right answer to?

So, your interaction would not be with me but with yourself.

In the beginning, I addressed you as a “traveller,” should I have called you a “human?”

Probably, right now, you’ll agree because you have a body, right?

Or are you “in” a body?

Let’s face it. The truth is the second.

Somebody might be called a human until they’re “alive”, but once they die, they’re called “dead.”

But, you know, there is life after “death”, so why be called dead once we’ve left our physical body?

It’s just that the soul is like water filled in a bottle which is the body. So you see, the water doesn’t

reduce in amount until you drink it, in the same way, if, in the end, you say that you can’t live life

loudly, there’s no one to blame except you! That’s on you! Be it anyone coming in the way, the fault

is in you because you let them in, in through the gate to your mind, to pull you down!

Why be backstage when you can rock it up on the floor!?

So, if I don’t see you when we are both in bodies, don’t worry!

We’ll get a chance to meet on the other side!
