Silence and Stillness
The still small voice — every tradition keeps a chamber of quiet at the centre of speech. The God who speaks in whispers, the Tao that knows the world without going out.
Judaism
"...and after the fire a still small voice."
"Be still, and know that I am God..."
Christianity
"...a time to keep silence, and a time to speak..."
Buddhism
"Let a man overcome anger by love, let him overcome evil by good..."
Islam
"And remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him with [complete] devotion."
