SILENCE

The ultimate Divine Truth can only be expressed in Silence. All words- even the most accurately chosen ones by someone who has attained to the state of Inner Silence and enlightenment- can at best be a clear description hinting at the Truth. God is to be found in the Silence within. A Silence where there are no more thoughts arising in the Mind, no more emotions and feelings asking for your attention. Therefore all words take you away from the Truth- even if they are speaking of God and describing Him. Descriptions are never the real thing- not even where a mundane object is concerned. And since the Divine Truth is only present in the Here/Now,- and never in the Past nor Future because they are creations of the Ego-Mind,- it can never be truly expressed in words. The AUM are the closest you can get to it.
To human-beings talking is generally very common-place and so much a part of their lives that even short moments of Silence appear unbearable. Yet how often are your words more than just an act to satisfy and quieten your Ego-Mind? How often is what you impart to others of real value on more than just a superficial level? The urge to talk about personal matters always arises from the Ego-Mind. And for as long as you identify your-self with that part in you, which is so often disturbed with currents and cross-currents you can never attain to the state of Inner Silence and Truth. Because in moments where there is silence around you the inward noise usually appears to be even louder. But you can be touched by it all the same because the Divine is all-powerful. Everyone feels calmed and soothed by the Silence of the sort God can instill through Mother Nature- even if it may take you a while to become attuned to it. Mother Nature being a very pure expression of the Divine- where it has not been interfeered with by Ego-driven human-beings.

LOVE LOVE

There is a kind of love which unifies and unites and one that renders us poignantly - at times even painfully - aware of boundaries, limitations and our separateness. The mastership of true loving is to attain the awareness of the first and to henceforth exist in this state even whilst passing through personal experiences of the love that separates.

LOVE ME FOR A REASON

The Ego is unconsciously aware that love has the power to bestow immortality. And because its greatest fear is to die, it is instinctively seeking after love. However, for as long as the Ego is clinging to the reasons for why it is believing itself to be loved, death remains imminently close and fear remains the dark shadow of the love it is experiencing. Only when the reason for feeling loved is an all-encompassing, unconditional love that is being felt inside your own self, does love make you immortal. Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.
