Silence

Is life and fulfilment

January 4th 2018
True silence is not only an absence of noise, true silence is neither empty nor mute. On the contrary, true silence is plenitude, it is alive, vibrant, it talks and sings. You may wonder how you can hear this silence. You will hear it only once the big bass drums – our passions, our emotions and our chaotic thoughts – stop beating within us. There is much work to do, requiring a lot of patience and mastery of our psychic life. One day, when all our inner storms have abated, silence will come and wrap us in its splendid coat. Then clarity will emerge and we will sense something very powerful reigning and presiding over the world: the great primordial silence from which creation stems and to which it will one day return.
