SILENCE ~ THE SACRED FOOD FOR THE SPIRIT




The body is just a very tiny part of who we are. The body and its senses are in the world of form; but the world of the invisible, the formless, is a major part of who we are.

It is obvious that the body can be made in the physical by physical parents, but the Spirit to activate the body comes only from the formless world. Without the Spirit to work the body, the body is dead.

The body is a tool that we, "the Spirit", "the Life" use on this Physical world of form. We are "the Spirit", we are "Life".

Contemplate on this ~ 'it is not the eye that sees but You,... it is not the ice that is cold but You who feel it so. If this is so then it is very obvious that the body is just a tool.

We feed the body and take care of it, but are we feeding our Spirit?

The food for the Spirit is 'SILENCE'.

Silence is a space between thoughts, the space between the notes of music that we enjoy. We can become aware of this by practice. Everything that is created comes out of silence.

Silence is the language of the Creator. Nature teaches us silence, the trees, the grass, grow in silence; the sun, the moon and the stars move in silence.


Silence is the food, the life energy for our Spirit. Silence is inner health, inner strength, inner peace, and inner power. It is our storehouse of knowledge and by bringing in more and more of silence into our space we bring in more and more wellbeing, joy, and peace into our life.

The effective ways of bringing silence into our space is through meditation, by bringing in quiet time into our busy schedules, becoming the observer of inner chatter, connecting with the stillness of places in nature, like a calm lake side, observing the sunset, listening to the still voice of the early hours of the morning, or by looking into the still depth of a cloudless night sky.

When we choose to bring more silence into our life, we anchor inner peace. And there is nothing more life-giving than inner peace. When we have inner peace, we radiate it to the outer world and it touches everyone around us, it becomes a protective shield that deflects all negative energy, and it releases neurotransmitter in the brain that provide perfect health and youth to the body.

Beautiful life is flowing within us, let us choose to give this gift of Sacred Silence to ourselves and for this Planet.

Blessings!
