Do you ever say you don’t know?
Does it ever occur to you to say to yourself, ‘Really, I don’t know about this,’ and remain there?
‘I don’t know’ – not trying to find an answer. To find an answer can only be verbal.
Somebody tells you what to do, and you say, ‘Well, that may be.’ It is still verbal; it’s not yours.
So why can’t we be very simple about this matter, which is, ‘I really don’t know’?
Can you honestly say that?
