Silence's noise

[Guest guest]

Reality is dreamless-sleep, the mind its noise.

 

-- the noise I am

 

That which the world calls day is the night of ignorance to the wise.

-- Bhagavad Gita 2-69

The man of restraint is awake

In that which is night for all beings;

The time in which all beings are awake

Is night for the sage who sees.

 

* Meaning that the "sage who sees" percieves

the light of the aatman, which is dark as night to

others, while the others see the light of the sense

which is dark as night to the sage
