An Engaged Life
Mindfulness of Noble Silence
Rest in the stillness and silence to ground the being in preparation for worthwhile action, caring and meaningful.
Be mindful of the experience of any minimal movements arising as you sit.
Noble silence provides support for those who wish to speak to you. Your silence acknowledges those dwelling in silence.
Receptivity to silence offers a valuable resource fostering stillness and will serve to express wisdom in our voice and actions.
The majesty of noble silence and stillness. Dartmoor, Devon, England
In the depth, sounds travel through the silence.
Noble silence serves as a reminder of the connection with the depth of our being, eliminating the need to elaborate storytelling.
In silence, there is no ongoing narrative, nor indulgence in views, with no wasting of precious energy in unhelpful mental activity.
Our energy channels focus on the mind at rest, which deepens our silence and stillness.
We experience a subtle vitality, delicate sensations and vibrations of the entire being in this profound state of restfulness.
There is no need for intentional, deliberate efforts to dissolve the I, self, ego or thought construction.
In the silence, letting go becomes a natural and organic process arising from our connection with silence and stillness.
The act of letting go includes memories, plans, and daydreams often associated with blind spots and stress.
Receptivity to noble silence and stillness reveal as significant elements as our receptivity deepens.
This receptivity gives access to fresh insights, alternative perspectives and original expressions of understanding.
Such clarity and insights facilitate skilful engagement and action.
We adopt periods of silence and meditative stillness, not for our own benefit, but to create space for realisations differing from our old views.
We bring ethics, calm and clarity to our global actions. This is love characterised with a purity of intention.
Such love abides independent of reciprocity and confirmation from the other.
Noble silence supports love and liberation enabling us to move freely in the world to engage with life.
Love serves as a conduit between deep rest and deep service including our capacity to learn from errors of judgement.
The act of remaining silent can show a sign of respect and consideration.
We know the time when it is important to speak up on important matters without ongoing repetition and the time to abide in noble silence.
Noble silence can convey our respect and consideration for others.
A deep silence serves as a doorway to a liberating truth.
