Deep Silence at DiyMillionaireGuide

Why is silence so important?

Because it is unconditioned. How so? Because it is withdrawal from the world of conditioned listening, speaking, acting, thinking, tasting, smelling, feeling.

It is withdrawing from all of this which is familiar, rehearsed, finite and predictable. It is opening to the unconditioned, the unknown, the unrehearsed, the infinite, the unpredictable.

What is to be gained?

Why, the peace of freedom from the conditioned and limited. The joy of discovery of the unknown. The abundance of life as yet untapped. The gift of healing which unfolds in the natural, limitless self. The final fall of duality which restores our wholeness, our oneness.

A man once asked Rumi, “Why is it you talk so much about silence?” His answer: “The radiant one inside me has never said a word”. From The Soul of Rumi by Coleman Barks.
