Silence is golden

If speech is silvern,silence is golden
when you must speak , speak a few words
speak sweetly, speak softly
that is the way to reach a silencer's heart

Some people are always talkative and some are always silent. It is not good to be very silent and be very talkative. Those who are silent and calm do not get angry always but the time they get angry it is very serious. Those who have the habit of getting angry always they get angry but later they forget.

“Saying nothing...sometimes says the most.”

Some people talk only through their eyes , their speech is less but through their eyes we can understand so much. Usually in true love eyes speak a lot and both understand each other very well.

Men are born with two eyes, but only one tongue,
in order that they should see twice as much as they say. - Charles Caleb Colton

The best answer to anger is silence. When someone gets angry its better to be silent than argueing with them. Later they will understand that they should not have got angry.

Here is a statistics that justify your blog:

1) 83% of knowledge comes from our eyes
2) 11% through ears
3) 6% from tongue, nose and skin

Silence is a great language. We can listen to our higher consciousness only in silence. Silencing is not only applicable for talking but it also applies to our mind. If we still our mind even for a few minutes every day, the mind would function well. That is much more effective than sleeping. It is like reformatting the drive to start all over again.

if the computer freezes, we use control, alter and delete keys simultaneously. Similarly, we get overwhelmed, we need to control, then alter and delete what is not necessary to quiet the mind.

Silence is the most complex mode of communication.
Silence can reach where words cannot.
Silence can mean positive, neutral or negative response.
Silence can mean infinite compassion or immeasurable cruelty.
Silence can be effective tool of communication, for both the Master and Slave.
Silence is the end supreme ecstacy and also can be the beginning of ever lasting enmity.
Silence can mean absolute knowledge and also absolute ignarance.
In space, you hear only Silence.

The one who is wise, knows-
Where, When, Why and How one should be Silent.

Shhhhhhhhh.............................. hear the Brahman!!!!!
