Discussion
Who had suggested that questions are a powerful means of triggering thinking and can lead people from "unconscious ignorance to conscious ignorance" ?
Answer: A
The thinker who held that questions lead people from unconscious ignorance to conscious ignorance is Socrates.
Socrates taught by asking questions, the method known as elenchus or the Socratic method. Persistent questioning made a person realise how little he knew, and that awareness of ignorance was the starting point of real inquiry.
Plato and Aristotle developed philosophy after him and Chanakya was an Indian thinker of statecraft, so none of them is the source of this idea.
