“ Mouna ( silence) is the best and
most potent diksha, as was practiced by Sri Dakshinamurthi.
Touch, look etc. are all of a lesser order. Silence ( mouna
diksha) changes the hearts of all. “ Bhagawan Sri Ramana Maharishi, Talks 433.
I am drunk with your
silence, lord: this intoxication destroys all name and form.
In the still mind, a
haunting beauty awakens- now nothing can
ever be the same again.
There is no I or you left,
in this melting of infinite love; if this be madness, I shall so gladly be
insane.
I have lost my tongue and
forgotten my face, there is only this boundless, inexhaustible space,
Like a night sky awash with
starlight .
It is said that the sword of
your perfect stillness cuts off all heads: take mine !
Since you have filled me with
the blessing of your silence,
I do not need it any more.
