DESCRIPTION

‘THE SOUND OF SILENCE’ is a handmade extract from the Samadhi handbook on the subject of listening to silence for spiritual growth. To connect to the sound of silence, we have to regularly exercise those inner ears. Listening to the sound of silence fits equally well as a continued practice. It will greatly enhance our mental stability, flexibility and strength. The beauty of this practice is that it starts so easily, pure wellness of chanting any beautiful song and listening to the silences in between the words. As the length of those silences grows, it effortlessly glides into a deeper level of full connection to the sound of silence. That soundless sound then readily reveals itself as the greatest sound of sounds, the sacred voice of the divine, the blissful beingness that we are. Nothing remains of the inner sounds of our individual soul, but fragments of desires and attachments, easily cherished and as easily released. Until all outer and inner sounds of life become a harmonious symphony of that sound space of silence. As we thus may learn how to stop thinking and remain really silent, we will discover the unexpected treasure of our true divine nature, the cherry on the cake. Yet we have to fundamentally stop thinking of ourselves as thinkers only. We are so much more than that.

This booklet is part of a series of small books extracted from “Samadhi – The Deep Meditation Handbook”, a two-volume work with over 600 pages on reaching the deepest states of meditation. Samadhi is the highest of yogic practices, a trance state where body consciousness is entirely lost and a gradual full merging with the Self is gained. It requires daily sustained meditation practice, supported by some major changes to our lifestyle, attitudes and desires. It is nevertheless everyone’s birthright, even when living as a householder yogi.

Quotes


The entirety of the yogic tradition is revealed as originating from the Self, bridging the illusion of a gap between nonduality and other practices.

The practitioners of yoga postures, breath, mantra, or meditation should not be confused about whether all of that is helpful on the spiritual path, or just some distraction produced by the ego.
