A Prayer of Silence

Awareness of the Divine Essence as our innermost true Self requires silence.
It is turning toward what lies hidden within –
to the internal – the all-embracing totality of Divine Being.
It is the way of meditation, the way of inner silence before Spirit.

Remaining quiet before Spirit is a “prayer of silence,”
through which we listen to that which secretly speaks to us
in the “inner room of the heart.”

What is hidden deep in our innermost being lies in silence and stillness,
and in the silence of the deep springs the eternal, inexhaustible, original
source of all being.
Where words fall silent, the everlasting begins…
