The source of your [authentic] power is your still point.
Your power comes from harmony with your inner world.
That relationship is nurtured in silence, in solitude, in reflection.

Joseph Campbell said much depends on knowing who you are
and what you want out of life. The self-knowledge requires
reflection, quiet time to nurture and build. Before expending energy,
build energy. Spend time in contemplation, in a pre-verbal state
of receiving, waiting for guidance.

The still point is that place of quiet reflection, meditation or
prayer, time for rest and relaxation and contemplation.

Within each of us , there is a silence, a silence as vast as
the universe, And when we experience that silence, we
remember who we are... It is a paradox that we encounter
so much internal noise when we first try to sit in silence.
