A Wordless Prayer

A Silent Language

A man speaks of the deep grief he felt after losing his daughter, sharing how in the early stages, she would come to him in dreams, and they would communicate without words. He describes feeling her presence and a silent language that he could only perceive when he was in a state of being – free of thought. He wonders if this language exists beyond the finite mind. Rupert acknowledges the sensitivity he speaks of, explaining that profound grief or quiet presence in nature can silence the mind’s drama, revealing a hidden, silent language. He relates this to a realm that cannot be expressed in conventional language, one that artists try to make visible through their work.
