6.51 Scepticism is not irrefutable, but palpably senseless, if it would doubt where a question cannot be asked. For doubt can only exist where there is a question; a question only where there is an answer, and this only where something can be said.
6.52 We feel that even if all possible scientific questions be answered, the problems of life have still not been touched at all. Of course there is then no question left, and just this is the answer.
6.521 The solution of the problem of life is seen in the vanishing of this problem.

More exposition is needed. What is Ludwig’s answer to the question posed by life?

I am not sure what you mean, but I think he would say that there is no question to begin with. Life is something to be lived, and religious feeling and the way of thinking and behaving that follows it is our highest aim. My essay on the intellectual love of God is a place to start. But i agree with you, the suffering of life and the question of suicide and Ethics still demands an answer. I am just beginning to look into Wittgenstein in more depth. He was a fascinating individual. His clarity as a writer and idiosyncrasies of his character intrigue me.

Perhaps our goal or aim (in this life) ought to be to cultivate a spiritual level of consciousness.
