Indeed good points. There are infinite ways to express the truth but, no one way is an expression of complete truth. There are as many Gods as there are living beings and there are as many paths to realization as individuals.

Silence is the best teacher. Yet, I tend to talk in this form of writing... (LOL). However, that is still a bodily and mental function afterall.

Some thoughts on silence from a controversial master.

To hear the voice of silence is to understand that from within comes the only true guidance.'

When you are silent, really silent -- after the storm has passed, when you have fallen into silence spontaneously -- you have not cultivated it; it has come to you, it has arisen in you spontaneously -- in this silence you will come to feel and understand and realize that now the true guidance is possible from your own innermost being. Now the master, the inner master will appear to you.

Your own innermost center is your real master. Outer masters can help, but their help is basically directed toward finding the inner master. And when the inner one is found, there is no need for the outer master. You have become master in your own right.

But this happens only when you have come to realize a total inner silence, without any thoughts, without any words, without any imagination, without any ripples of any kind. When you have come to understand and feel a rippleless silence, a thoughtless, nonmoving silence -- this silence becomes your inner master. Now, out of this silence, guidance will be given to you."
