"
Identifying with Spirit, we enter into Truth. At this point, like a
child learning to swim, who for the first time, trusts the water to
support him and finds that he cannot sink, we leave behind the
finite intellect and, trusting our intuitions, learn the Truth
through direct Knowing from Spirit to Spirit."
Henry Thomas Hamblin
"Truth is ever expressed in
Paradox"
Lao Tsze
Silence longs to rest in sound
Sound longs to rest in silence...
Silence is pure, simple Being - an Attribute of God - pure
Gold.
Through actively Waiting on God in Silence - we
understand the words "All is well" and therefore "All shall be
well." As Thomas Carlyle clearly observed "Silence is the element
in which Great Things Fashion Themselves."
Therefore, let us cultivate The Sacred Art and Science of Silence
and Sound - of Being and Knowing - that All shall
indeed be well.
"Be still, and know that I AM God." Psalm 46
"I believe that the most proper mode of venerating the Great
Principle of Principles is to contemplate It in profound silence;
and that in worship It should be celebrated as the God of all Gods,
the Unity of all Unities, The Good of all Goodness, the Beauty
above all Beauty, the Truth in and beyond all Truth."
Thomas Taylor
"The very best and utmost attainment in this life is to remain
still and let God Act and Speak in you."
Meister Johannes Eckhart
"Behold, I have shown you the power of silence, how thoroughly it
heals - how fully pleasing it is to God. Know it is by silence that
the Saints grow...because of silence that the power of God dwelt in
them and because of silence that The Mysteries of God were known to
them...
SILENCE WILL UNITE YOU TO GOD HIMSELF
The Desert Fathers
"The Gods lead
and perfect all things in a silent path by Their very Being and
fill them with Good."
Proclus
"Language is inadequate. The Gods sing a hymn of silence and I
am silently singing."
Nag Hammadi texts
"The language that God hears best is the silent
language of Love."
St John of The
Cross
