Silence Heals
It's in silence where you meet your real Self;
the Self you wandered away from, the one you could never leave, and were convinced you could never find.
You've been wandering as though Homeless
when it was never really possible to leave
home at all. Your despair, your loneliness
have come from the perception that you
have been separated from your Source.
Nothing could be further from the Truth.
Enter the Silence to find what has always
been here. In the depths of Love is the
Vastness that is You. Welcome Home.

The Sound Of Silence
Paul Simon, 1964
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turn my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools," said I, "you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence..."

See that, Jen? Chill bumps,
Even the green leaves from the skylight.
Sundance, you are connected. I'll let Jen explain, elsewhere.

Mirror Pond on Mount Taibo in Shanxi
The water and my mind have both settled down
Into perfect stillness.
Sun and moon shine bright in it.
At night I see in the surface
The enormous face of my old familiar moon.
I don't think you've ever met the source of this reflection.
All shrillness fades into the sound of silence.
But now and then a puff of mist floats across the mirror.
It confuses me a little
But not enough to make me forget to forget my cares.
Hsu Yun
(1839 - 1959)
