Guest guest Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 The silence can not exist if there is no sound, reason why is necessary to make the exercise of silence to reach the sound. Silence has a particularity, to force the individual to self talk, to observe the thoughts and to know the inner self. Therefore this mystery is not discovered in the world, is found and it is learned in the heart of the humans who seek to improve their existence. Silence, although seems strange to say, can help the human beings to find answers to our own mystery. There are three types of silence: - The physical silence that consists of not speaking and strictly not to generate noise.- Mental silence is reduced not to think.- Spiritual silence is to get at total silence to find the field of the supreme manifestation.- The steps to find silence are: Silence like an exercise; and the meditation. The first step is silence by the silence, we need the willpower to execute it. It is to learn to control the exact handling of the words. In order to achieve this silence is necessary to concentrate the attention in elements more subtle almost imperceptible the ones we are not accustomed to listen, like the beating heart, the crack of the floors, the breathing. The other step is to be silent to listen: If we are in the magnanimous nature and we chose to remain silent and to suspend all human action and show a humility and respect we are going to learn to listen to the messages of the nature through wind, the water, the trees and all this constitutes a food to our spirit to feel the pure messages without prejudices and intentions. The third is meditation: It is a step beyond silence in itself. No longer it is a food for the soul but it constitutes the divine essence. The meditation allows us to realise physical silence and mental silence, where is no longer the will but exist a bigger force that makes us to be in silence in our mind. In that moment we must accept the thoughts as a river, we have flowing ideas until comes a time they get silent and only energy flows. http://thewritingsofalchemists.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
