Guest guest Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 hey CHITTA! Guess what ! we are in safe zone when we quote Bhagwan Sri Ramana Maharishi! For HE is 'satyam, jnanam , anantam, braHma.' Here is what Bhagwan says on 'Pure Silence' Ramana speaks about pure silence this way: "What exists in truth is the Self alone. The self is that where there is absolutely no "I" thought. That is called Silence. The Self itself is the world; the Self itself is "I"; the Self itself is God." "The inner silence is self-surrender. And that is living without the sense of ego. Solitude is in the mind of humanity. Silence is ever speaking; it is the perennial flow of "language." It is interrupted by speaking; for words obstruct this mute language. Silence is permanent and benefits the whole of humanity. . . . By silence, eloquence is meant. It is the best language. There is a state when words cease and silence prevails." "There is Consciousness along with quietness in the mind; this is exactly the state to be aimed at." from the spiritual teachings of Ramana maharishi -shambala productions ********************************************************************** This is the 'inward silence ' not the outward silence. In outward silence, the tongue is 'silent' but the Mind is racing like Hurricane Jeanne at 165 miles per hour . But in inward silence , the soul sings ! then you hear the flute of Lord Krishna ! love and regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
