Episode description
Silence, stillness and darkness give us a chance to disconnect from our wired world, from the external, from the cacophony of everyday life, the onslaught of information and the chaos of noise pollution.
Stillness is the silence of our habitual unconscious body movements.
Darkness is the silence of sight.
For some the disconnect of silence is emptiness, for others it is fullness. Silence breeds insight as we
let go of the familiar and open to the depths. Silence cultivates deeper listening, an active listening. Silence invites a deepening of our inner life. Silence is the potentiated field of possibility.
Silence opens the door to the vastness of our Being.
Silence is the playground of the mystic.
"Silence holds with its gloved hand,
the wild hawk of the mind."
