Question

Did you know? Buddha's "avyākata" — unanswered questions — are the 14 metaphysical questions he refused to answer (does the universe exist eternally? does the soul live after death?). Not from ignorance, but because answers do not bring liberation.

Accepted Answer

Buddha's "avyākata" — unanswered questions — are the 14 metaphysical questions he refused to answer (does the universe exist eternally? does the soul live after death?). Not from ignorance, but because answers do not bring liberation.

Boeddha's "avyākata" — onbeantwoorde vragen — zijn de 14 metafysische vragen die hij weigerde te beantwoorden (bestaat het universum eeuwig? leeft de ziel na de dood?). Niet uit onwetendheid, maar omdat antwoorden geen bevrijding brengen.
