The
Sound from Silence

In
continuation with the seminar I had attended, and hearing about Meherbaba
I was intrigued with the thought that Mehebaba had taken a wow of silence
for almost thirty-five years. He maintained it till he died. This set
me thinking could I possibly keep silent in this modern world for thirty
or forty years? How would I conduct my life? How would I communicate?
This set me in another line of thought. This modern world has adequate
upheavals, reasons for irritation and frustrations, what would I convey
in silence. If I remained silent, would there be temper and anger? In
fact, I think if I was not disciplined the silence would be broken and
I would turn into a screaming harridan. But then, onto the path of being
one with the Source a quiet silence would defeat the upheaval, and perhaps
I would then say "This too will pass."
What
then was "Soundless Sound", the
sound from silence?
One needs to explore this world of silence. The Universe was
created from this soundless sound.
And if "I am That" it is imperative
that one understands "soundless sound".
