In our everyday life, there is always room for growth, change and refinement. But we must set aside a time for such confinement of thought and opinion and must always be prepared to change or make an adjustment when necessary. By so doing, new knowledge is brought to bear in our consciousness for any eventual modifications and refinement for our experience.
The same is often true, in the importance of the power of silence in our journey of life, because often times, the power of silence can moves us into a new dimension of understanding and indeed, a higher level of consciousness.
History has often, in way put in evidence, that with silence, one can become a living force in every phase of life. This is true, as it has often come to help to avoid conflicts, and given strength in an emotional moment of crises with the result of attracting the shy to speak out, even unprepared.
Indeed, the rule of learning by listening and observation come to gain even more merit, when we are told that the great philosophers of old used the power of Silence, as they impose silence on their student, as the students were able to carry on with their studies.
During the time, the students were able to absorbed and contemplate to find their own answers to their numerous problem. Therefore, with the power of silence, one no doubt, can come to the very awareness that knowledge grasps from within hold greater value. But the mind must be controlled to nurture and strengthen not without principles imposed.
Because, if silence is required in the interest of honour and dignity, there may as well be another reason which could be justification for
secrecy, something more like self- survival.
The same is true, if secrecy is often a painful obligation imposed as a form of a rigid society, it may also come to act as a strategy against or around any intruders.
However, the stress of being involved in a private and social realities cannot be over emphasised, and it means that a lot of the important activities come to take place in that small area where the inner and outer realities meet the eyes.
It must be observed, however, that the vocabulary of vision, is much in evidence here, that tends to indicate just how much is going on in the most sensitive part of our organ , that both connect and separate our consciousness and the world around us.
However, in a world full of so many secrets and imposed suppression, the eyes definitely have to be very busy, not only in encountering surfaces , but having to penetrate them enough, not only to decipher the signs and wonders but also to be sure they are well interpreted without being misinterpreted as at when required to do so.
