Silence is not a thing to find-- It is a place inside me #GMfavorites

Our only practice is keeping Loving-Silence, the presence of God, in the foreground of our experience.
Hearing This first.
Seeing This first.
Noticing This first.
Being This first,
then being human,
then being a mom, sister, friend, a husband.
Being Love first,
because It makes you a better mom, sister, friend or husband.

Silence is not hiding from you.
You can't find It.
You can't earn It.
you don't have to understand It.
You just have to STOP,
and listen to It...
listen for It...
just like you're listening now...
just like you're relaxing your shoulders now...
just like you're smiling now :)
 
Don't talk to God today.
Just listen.
Feel It (the Silence).
Hear It (the Silence).
Trust It (the Silence).
Then, watch It :)

I Love you,
Nik

Today's Quotes: 

"Any attempt to find peace is throwing  a stone into a calm lake.  Peace is already here. You just disturb it by running outside. When you don't make any attempt there is no mind, but when you try to make any attempt, there rises the mind which is going to disturb you."
-Papaji

"Silence is not a thing to find-- It is a place inside me.
I can go there and visit whenever and wherever I want."
-'The Boy Who Searched for Silence' by Andrew Newman

"Silence is something that comes from your heart, not from outside. Silence doesn't mean not talking and not doing things; it means that you are not disturbed inside.  If you're truly silent, then no natter what situation you find yourself in you can enjoy the silence."
-Thich Nhat Hanh
