There is a kind of
noise that exists both, outside and within. It’s the chaos of daily life - messages,
decisions, stress - and the chaos of the mind - overthinking, reacting,
remembering all details...
To avoid that noise or
to decrease its volume, we have silence… Not the silence that is the absence of
noise; silence as an inner state, a space we can enter even when the world is
loud.
As we are living in
the age of chaos, noise is part of the pattern… Yes, we could find a place in
the mountains, far from all. Or we can resort to silence.
In the midst of chaos,
silence is not weakness. It’s strength. It’s clarity. And it’s healing.
Meditation teaches us
to return to that inner silence. Just a few minutes of stillness can shift our
state. Meditation isn’t about controlling thoughts, but about not being
controlled by them. It allows the mind to settle, and in that settling, we
begin to hear our own wisdom again.
Silence opens us to
hear the real sound, the sound of our inner voice.
Silence also has the
power to heal. Emotional pain, stress, fatigue - these begin to soften in the
presence of true stillness. Not the silence of suppression, but of awareness,
that moment when we stop trying to fix everything and simply sit in silence. At
that point, something begins to mend… maybe not externally - the age we live is
of chaos - but inside.
Inside there is deep
healing, deep awareness, but the beauty of this practice of silence is that it permeates
our reality… After all, even in relationships and daily tasks, silence has a
role as it brings focus, patience and depth.
In conversations, a
pause can be more meaningful than a rush of words. At work, a moment of inner
quiet can lead to better decisions than hours of action and discussions.
As chaos is all
around, silence is not a retreat from life; it is the key to a better life.
In chaos, it becomes
our compass and guide.
