"The
paradoxical aphorism, "Conquer by silence, the bondage of words" (from
the Emerald Tablets of Thoth)
is a potent reminder that there are great
limitations of words in capturing the true essence of reality.
Words, with their static definitions, can confine our understanding of the
world.
They can create binaries, force complex ideas into rigid
categories,
and ultimately fail to grasp the ineffable.
Be careful when transmitting
and receiving words.
Silence,
on the other hand,
becomes a portal to a deeper truth.
It
allows us to transcend the limitations of language
and connect our
experiences and perceptions with
greater depth and dynamic
understanding. Through
quiet
contemplation, we can access a realm of truth
beyond the reach of words –
a space of pure being,
unmediated by the filters of preconceived
notions.
Mindful silence isn't
just the absence of sound,
but an active state of receptivity, where we
open ourselves to the ineffability
of existence. In
this way,
silence allows us
to break free
from the
constraints of
language and
encounter the expanse
of existence
in its
raw
authenticity."
