SILENCE DOES NOT give way to ignorance, but to enlightenment. Those things which do not speak are those things which are wisest among all others. The mountains call forth in their silence. They call so that one may feel their serenity and silent wisdom. Listen to that silence which shall empower oneself if one allows it to do so. It is one’s home that one may never see otherwise; one’s failing limitation. It is the strongest of limitations, to not listen to the call of the nothing.
OBSERVATION OF THE world around oneself is key to enlightenment, for one may never understand oneself lest they understand those around themselves. Though the things which you observe may tell of your watchful eyes, their soul will understand. Though they tell you what you do, they always know you if you look to their eyes, for their eyes are the singular connection to their “truth”; the only point on the human body which can never have a proper illusion’s shadow cast upon it. They shall understand your unbreakable silence, like the mirror reflections of a calm pond. However, one must be silent in one’s eyes as well as in one’s mind.
THE SILENT ARE not shy, nor are they a wavering power of rage and vengefulness. The silent man is the wise man. In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness.
A MAN OF silence is a man of pure mystery and deception, for he gives nothing to the outside world by which to judge him. When one is silent, the world is deafeningly loud in words spoken as if one never existed, and in silence small pieces of the truth can be felt in the blanketing pool of the human psyche.
THE SILENT CAN never be affected by the outside world for they do not attribute themselves to it. You must be like a wooden toy, for only then will you not speak, nor think, nor feel, and at that point all will become clear.
