The Power Of A Moment of Silent.

     SILENCE THE HEALER

Do you ever feel lost and overwhelmed by the accelerated pace of modern life? With information streaming at us from all directions at dizzying speeds, it’s hard to avoid the overload and over stimulation of our senses. Can we even measure the impact and consequences of all these “rush hours” on our psyches, and the amount of stress and anxiety it triggers in our lives? With so many forces tugging at us, what can we do to find space, tranquillity and repose that our souls so desperately need? How do we prevent becoming splintered and burned out from this unceasing barrage?

Underneath and beyond the surface noise in your mind, lies the silence that is your true nature. All true communication, remember, comes out of silence, and leads back to silence. When the mind finally understands, it falls silent. It is in silence that you feel the vibration of creation itself, that you hear the sound of the source, the whisper of eternity. It is in silence that you discover your true universal nature—that you are, indeed, an expression of the one divine power behind the universe, manifesting in this individual body, mind, and heart. It is in silence that you discover the truth of interconnectedness, and the priceless jewel of love. It is in silence that you tap into your deepest creative power, to the source of all creation, to consciousness itself. Silence is healing, nourishing. It is who and what you fundamentally are.

If there is one quality, or characteristic, that all awakened individuals share, it is this deep inner silence. As the great texts say, the sage dwells in inner silence. The awakened ones, especially if they are marketplace teachers, are indeed active in the world. They may talk quite a bit, laugh, play, engage in lots of creative activities, but inside, in the depths of their being, in the place where all thoughts originate, is that silence.

It is not a forced silence, either. It is the silence that unfolds naturally when you see that all the noise in your mind—the mental chatter—is entirely self-generated. When you see that it is your own story, your own incessant thinking that is getting in the way of your deeper peace and well-being, that seeing brings everything to a stop. Then the exquisite fragrance of stillness, of silence, reveals itself.

Yet silence, at first, can be scary for people, especially those who are constantly filling their environment with noise, whether it's music, television, endless telephone conversations, or the company of other people.
