THE SILENCE
“… All healing
transmutation takes place in the Silence. Through the practice of quieting the
thinking process, we can turn our attention away from the cacophony of
incessant thinking that passes through and practice listening to the quietness,
listening to and for the Silence; there is a sound to It.
Listen for the
profundity of the Silence. It has a resonance; It has a frequency. Listen until
you hear It, as It is equally-everywhere-present and always available. We look
at each other through It. Cultivate an affinity with the Source, with the
Silence. It is the only ballast that we can depend on, and It requires no guru
outside of yourself.
The Silence is the
Guru, and It lives eternally through each of us, waiting to receive our
attention so that It can find expression uniquely as us, every individual. All
hopes are possible manifestations through cultivating this affinity with the
Silence.
“Never tell anyone they
can’t do something, for God may have been waiting centuries for someone who
didn’t know that.”
~ The Reverend
Kathryn Jarvis
There is an evolutionary benefit to cultivating a state of
mind that is permeated with a deep and unflappable sense of knowing that, in
spite of all appearances to the contrary, there is hopefulness and an inherent
order which moves toward positive change. Such knowing augments a life, no
matter what the conditions. As an individual cultivates this stance, this
intimacy with the Silence, there is a resonance of hopeful certainty which
permeates his/her presence and is felt by others, elevating the mood however
subtly.
