Be not afraid of the Silence, for
Wisdom's Voice is heard there!
... Wise are those who learn through silence;
learn then to listen well.
For beyond the silence and stillness within,
you will come to know a profound and dazzling Silence --
Herein lies the music of the spheres,
the harmony of creation.
Enter into the Holy Temple of your soul,
converse with the Beloved in sweet communion.
Blessings of the Great Silence be with you as
you help to rebuild the heart of the world with love!
... from Psalms for Praying, an Invitation to Wholeness, by Nan C. Merrill
