Silence has no opposite in noise. It is beyond positive and negative. Silence
dissolves all objects. It is not related to any counterpart which belongs to
the mind. Silence has nothing to do with mind. It cannont be defined but it
can be felt directly because it is our nearness. Silence is freedom, without
restriction or center. It is our wholeness, neither inside nor outside the
body. Silence is joyful not pleasurable. It is not psychological. It is
feeling without the feeler. Silence needs no intermediary.
