The Beauty of Silence/Meditation



THE BEAUTY OF SILENCE-MEDITATION:



The Beauty of Silenceis the name that was given to me at the end of a Tantra's course by the teachers, few years ago. It pleased to me and at that moment I knew that there was a hidden meaning behind that name. 
Now I can explain you a little bit more what it means for me...

Meditate is much more than sitting with our eyes closed and breathe quietly…
Because meditate is a behavior, a way of living the Life as actors and spectators at the same time. It is walking our everyday life with open consciousness and be aware of what is going on around and within us.
Meditate is to listen to Nature… the way It unfolds and conveys itself, through the winds, the waters, the plants and trees, the birds and animals…
Meditate is to be able of being in silence and listen quietly to ourselves, is to discover the beauty of silence while living our everyday life.

Through silence, we can approach the creating powers of the soul and connect with the soul of the world as the ultimate goal to dissolve our ego and fully reconnect with our consciousness and spirit.
The silence has beauty for itself because the silence of the spirit is not a lack of words. Rather, it’s an inner state that represents the soul… that represents the vivid essence of the soul that impregnates all beings… humans, animals, plants and trees, rocks and rivers, oceans, winds, stars and cosmic dust. It’s emotional and alive, vibrant and quiet all at the same time.

Silence is a gateway that opens us to discover and reconnect with the soul of the world… And when we are trespassing that invisible door, our mind become quiet, calm… our left side begins to walk together with our right side of the brain… as if they were like twins that reunite after some time of walking isolate one from the other. And once this reunion is made, many connections within the brain start to rewire and our consciousness rekindle, as if it was some kind of fire… a subtle, tender and loving fire that fills us up through the kundalini and the channels named nadis that are distributed along the energy field, and especially they are more concentrated in the first layer. The one closest to our body.

To reach this state of silence, we can use the meditation as a way to concentrate (because concentration unites us with the element of Air), to visualize (as a way to unite with the element of Water), and to contemplate (as it helps us to enter to the temple of the Earth element, that is, we can enter to the realm of the soul of the world).
Because our soul is a beautiful part of the wondrous soul of the world. We can say that the soul of the world is the Magnificent Temple where our soul inhabits, where our soul lives, learns and gives its gifts, and where it can rest once the task is done.

Imagine a magnificent Temple… the most magnificent you can imagine… where inhabits all living beings that our imagination can picture out… fairies, gnomes, elves, spirits of trees and plants, spirits of lakes, rivers, seas and oceans, living rocks, extinguished animals… and also humans… our ancestors and the ones who are not here, yet. This Temple is housed by our Mother Earth and sustained by our Father Sky (or the whole Cosmos), as if it were a World within our world. Or better said, if it represented numerous worlds within the world we know as physical.
Our imagination and our creativity comes out of this Temple. Therefore, our creativity it’s not a product of our mind, or something we have figured out randomly. The creativity felt within us and, perhaps, in the way we unfold it through writing, painting or composing music, for instance, in reality is not ours, but it belongs to the soul of the world. But our ego is so big and proud of itself that it believes that are we who are the owners of that imagination. When, in fact, we are its channels. Because all that we can imagine, exist. Although not in our physical world as we perceive it with our five senses. But if we open our hearts and let the sixth chakra unfold itself, we can enter to a beautiful space where all the marvelous beings that sustain and create the soul of the world live…
It is a space without physical space… it is spaceless and timeless… it is silence and vibrant life where worlds are not necessary. Or even we can’t have words to express what we feel and perceive… when we enter to that timeless soul of the world, we are speechless, we can’t find suitable words because languages, as we know them nowadays, are created from the rational mind, only prepared to convey ideas and beliefs, laws and science. But not feelings and perceptions that go beyond our five senses.

We can meditate sitting down and closing our eyes while being focused in our breath or an image. And it is a good way to start to connect with the inner world of our soul and open the gateway to the soul of the world. But as time pass by, we can meditate while walking through the street, to the woods or the beach… while washing dishes or having shower… while talking in the office or being with our family and friends.

We also can meditate while dancing.
In this case I prefer using quiet music. A music that enter to my body and all my cells. And in this way, it transports my mind to the soul of the world, encompassing my consciousness with the movement of the Temple… with the movement of the soul of the world, as it is a Verb instead of a noun. And for that reason, as a Verb, it creates, shapes and reshapes ceaselessly the world and all of us. But not only the physical one, rather the emotional, mental and spiritual one. While all Cosmos is reshaped at every instant, without noticing it.
If we enable us to dance with the movement of the soul of the world, we will begin to perceive our own inner movement and creativity… and little by little we will be able to feel more our body, to speak with it, to speak with every organ. And to connect it to the Cosmos, to become a microcosm within the macrocosm…

If we meditate in group, our inner work is multiplicated thanks the work of our classmates. Because the explanation of that comes from a physics law that says that the result of a sum of energies (or a work with our soul, as energy as it is, it doesn’t matter if the work is emotional, mental or spiritual) is a multiplication.

A good starting for a meditation is to invoke our Higher Self, the Luminous Beings that surround us and to protect ourselves. After this ritual, we can begin with the meditation…
