Silence

Silence is the language of God, the Divine Presence speaking — the music of the Eternal.

Silence is the seed of creation…

The purpose of words is to create silence…

True laughter and celebration are born only out of deep silence…

Inevitably one experiences profound silence in the presence of the Master…

Questions disappear…

Worries, anxieties and desires disappear…

One is left speechless…

Typically if someone is silent, we think they are shy or upset. Our silence is not like that. Ours is the silence of joy.

Silence is a time for physical, mental and spiritual rejuvenation. In silence we again center our lives and gain a fresh new perspective. When we take the time to be silent, we soon discover our true inner nature that is beyond our fluctuating mind and emotions. This nature is peace and contentment.

Silence is an integral part of Art of Living Advanced Courses — in-residence programs offered at beautiful retreat locations around the world. Advanced Courses provide a prime opportunity to dive deeper into the practical wisdom of the Art of Living. The presence of the Master warms the heart and beckons us to a profound spiritual awakening. Each day ends with an evening of celebration that includes singing and dancing. Surprise activities also emerge, creating a delightful course flow where one never knows exactly what will happen next. One returns home renewed with the depth of joyful silence.
