The force of silence

  • 2013

The absence of sounds can be the gateway to a world full of meanings.
Getting to have a time of silence allows you to listen to you, your own voice silenced by so many noises; and if the mind also calms down, it will be much easier to appreciate and resolve the different situations we live.

Silence gives us the opportunity to listen to your own body, your heartbeat, your breathing, your slight movements, internal and external, ...
Noise invades our life, at all times. Machines are everywhere building, tearing down, circulating; we hear when they pierce a wall, when they send us a message, loud music through the window of a car, the alarm clock ...

Perhaps there is no absolute silence, even in our own silence we listen to those of our body. But when we talk about silence we refer to listening to our breathing, to relating to sounds that give us a state of tranquility and relaxation: the sound of the water of a river, the waves colliding with the shore of the beach, the song of the birds, the whistle of the wind ... We associate silence with a state of well-being.

Being silent tests our ability to be alone. Not having to express how we feel, just experience it, internalize it. And you do not know what happens, but it is a magical moment: it is the absence of noise, being with you, reviewing your interior, clarifying your ideas, ..., from the tranquility, experiencing your sensations. You and you. There is no need to explain anything.

In this noisy society, a silent person is strange, crazy ... because the absence of noise is translated as a belief of isolation.

There is an internal need to seek silence, a need to establish an intimate relationship with ourselves, to recover everything that the noise has taken away.

The inability to silence has a name: logorrhea: always say, constantly interrupt others, never shut up. It is not more than insecurity, fear of oneself, that silence prevails and you have to face your inner self and that what you see you do not like. You lose the ability to enjoy the tranquility of silence, to discover yourself.

We must train ourselves to silence and do something habitual in our life. Enjoying him brings us great internal benefits.
