As students we are always revealed by our questions, both what we ask and what we don't ask. This act of revelation is critical for our practice, but whenever we seek an answer from a teacher, we are still looking outside of ourselves, still missing our own wisdom. How do we seek answers while also having faith in our own capacity? If we want to make this practice our own, we need to balance faith and doubt, to go inward and seek the answers there. Practice is essential, because only through practice will we come into accord and stop missing ourselves.
