Silence is a meditative expression of an individual. It is a thoughtful process, where in one breaks bonds and consumes self in its own shell. It creates a barrier from individual’s existence and seeps into the person’s inner layers of life. I am deeply touched by the silence of a creature, my pet dog Fluffy, who has the potential of expressing its demands thru silent expressive eyes but is not able to speak thru. How tolerant and pragmatic, one becomes, if silence becomes an essence of our life. It is therapy to the disturbed mind and elixir to restless soul. One needs to spend some time in the isolated corner of his/her space.
In the present times, when deadlines are to achieved, sensex points are swindling, wishful expectations are to be fulfilled, we need to give some time to ourselves and think and ponder what and where we are leading ourselves. In spite of pouring our hearts to the friends and families, there is still a yearning to quieten our minds in the peaceful environment where no other but your soul contemplates and what if, we do it in our silence.
It is very intriguing to understand the meaning of silence, be it silence of mankind, silence of words, silence of spirit, silence of expression. It is also an expression of resentment when one differs from another, in expression of ideology. It is right to understand the silence of life, when it ceases to breathe the next moment, putting it thru the ultimate silence.
In the dark hours of the day, silence gives us another meaning, Silence of nature in the dense dark mountains gives us deep meaning of our own existence, it either scares or just fascinates. When night falls and humanity is in its deep slumber, it is the stunning silence, which is fearsome yet so meditative and calm that one desires to be awake during these hours.
It is the silence of the predator that makes its prowler to catch its prey swiftly and sharply, for silence instils confidence and deep concentration on its mind.Silence is capturing moment of life; it helps us to roll back, introspect and contemplate, raising our bars towards higher self. It is enthralling when captured at the right moment in the conscious state of mind, and is beautiful if exercised regularly.
