I am looking to find out, in the absence of Neveim, and Urim v’ Tumim, what Hashem wants me to do, by asking a Talmid Chochum who has a much clearer and purer and vastly greater Chochmah , Daas, and knowledge of the Halachah than I.
I am not looking to show how clever I am, I am looking to please my Creator.
