As I come out of the one week silence program, I find myself wanting to live in this silence forever. The stillness that this silence brings, echoes with the deepest parts of my soul. This one week has been the most exuberant one week of my life. To me today I feel more blessed to have experienced this than anything else in the world. As I sit here in awe of the source of creation, I can't help think how complacent we all have become in our ignorance. With dimensions impossible for the petty logical mind to dwell in, we are happy thinking that we know all there is to know, that anything deeper than what we know is for the foolish, for the so called fake spiritual of the world.
Yet I have compassion for I too come from that aspect of life where logic was the basis of my life. Anything that I had not experienced, that were not known through the five senses was unreasonable and for people who were a little conkey in the head. What I didn't realize is that just working with the mind is more being a psychological case than being in touch with our original nature, who we truly are. I pray and can only hope that everyone gets to experience the maginificence, the beauty of being alive one day. That everyone truly experiences who they really are, the limitless of themselves, and how limited they are stuck in the petty thing we call the mind.
