Each and every question originates from a presumption. All presumptions lead into more and more presumptions. They beget seemingly new thoughts and then the mind gets involved in them. But if the source and cause of the tendency of in-attention of the mind is seen in the very beginning itself, the mind remains just silent and peaceful. Finding out how and why the presumption was taken to be valid in the very first instance, makes it clear that this happens due to un-awareness and in-attention only. A sleepy mind fails to question the truth and correctness of the presumption, and gets caught in the apparent purport only.
