Some questions can only be answered in silence. Silence is the goal of all answers. If an answer does not silence the mind, it is no answer. Your soul is solidified silence & this solidified silence is wisdom, knowledge. When wisdom dawns, it gives rise to celebration. ****************************H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar************************** In this book, Sri Sri discusses topics ranging from doubt & fear to love & dispassion. He describes what it means to be on the spiritual path – a path of service, sadhana & surrender. He leads us through an understanding of God & back to our inner Self – what we really seek, often without knowing. Some people think being silent is spirituality. Many meditators feel that laughing, singing & dancing are not spiritual. Somepeople think only celebration is spirituality. In some parts of the world – rural India or Africa – celebration means loud music; there is no silence at all.But spirituality is a harmonious blendof outre silence & inner celebration, as well as inner silence & outer celebration. Asingle cell becomes the whole body. Somewhere it be comes fingernails, somewhere it bec-omes the nose &tongue, but everything is a manfestation of a single cell.In the same way, the entire universe is made up of a single substance. Ramembring & feeling that everythingis made up of one thing heals the body & mind & balances the three doshas in the body – vata, pitta & kapha. This is savitarka samadhi, which means equanimity with logical awareness. Deep sleep can be jada samadhi – equanimity with inertia. Hence sleep is the main factor in healing. Even medicines will not help without sleep & rest. Samdhi with ecstasy has no logic. This is nirvitarka samadhi, awareness with bliss Nirvitarka samadhi is beyoud the experience of bliss, indefinable beyoud words.
