The End of Sorrow

And a man who will understand the end of sorrow must understand this, must find, must go beyond this duality between the thinker and the thought, the experiencer and the experienced. That is, when there is a division between the observer and the observed, there is time, and therefore there is no ending of sorrow. Then, what is one to do? You understand the question? I see, within myself, the observer is always watching, judging, censoring, accepting, rejecting, disciplining,controlling, shaping. That observer, that thinker, is the result of thought, obviously. Thought is first; not the observer, not the thinker. If there was no thinking at all, there would be no observer, no thinker; then there would only be complete, total attention.

Silence - a daily thought from Brahma Kumaris

Silence is not a lack of communication. There is a subtle language that connects us to one another through the eyes, with a smile, or a gesture. In moving into an inner space of silence, we are attuning ourselves to the spirit of nature and letting go of the tendency to be critical. Silence provides the opportunity for me to identify the qualities in myself that have the capacity to transform me. In silence I can connect to the highest quality of my lightest, clearest thinking. In silence I can listen to the call of God, the call of nature, the call of others in need.

An endorsement from the Bishop of Reading

“It has been said that most of the world's problems are caused by the human inability to sit still. I am therefore delighted to support an initiative which simply invites the whole world to sit still for a few minutes. When we are still, we discover ourselves as part of a huge, complex and inter-connected universe. When we are still, we learn to appreciate people and things around us. When we are still, we rediscover a child-like sense of wonder. When we are still, we discover the beauty and the possibility and the eternity of each moment. When we are still, we may even find ourselves glimpsing God, the source of time and space the one who is best encountered in silence. Both the Hebrew and the Christian scriptures tell us: be still and know that I am God. But being still is also a painful challenge for when we are still thoughts and feelings that have submerged beneath the surface of our minds begin to reappear. But it is worth a try. It is the beginning of revolution, a counter cultural statement in a world of frantic busyness, a first step backwards into a realm of peace.”
