Outer Silence VS Inner Silence

When you are seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, tasting, thinking, perceiving and doing everything you are also breathing. In healthy condition breathing is free. 


Because it is free then your awareness of what you provide to be consumed by your mind during breathing process will be lessen. The mind control of external circumstances also become loose even vanish. Then you'll be react easily based on what your five senses send to your mind. Sometimes it happened suddenly, sometimes you wait a little bit longer, but still, you will react. It's only about the matter of time as you are only postponed to react and unfortunately you brought the reaction(s) and hold it into your mind. It is the real and simply example of the different between outer silence and inner silence. Outer silence is just literary. It doesn't mean much while your mind is still running here and there, of course nobody knows, only you. Inner silence doesn't need a quite place or an empty room to shut down the mind. You can control it just like that. With inner silence you can still feel calm and bliss even in the middle of heavy party with a loud of music and lots of people.

In other hands, outer silence will bring you to no where and depends on the circumstances or other people surround you. But deeply inside, you know, actually you don't. Inner silence is totally independent. It is like a moving glass room of a strong relationship only between you and God and God within you in every place you go, stay and untouched.

Practice your inner silence and not outer silence as it is still connected with the silence of your sense organs. Only think about yourself and love others compassionately  ☺️💐🙏
