Silence Which Beckons Us into Itself

Meister Eckhart said there is an immense silence which beckons us into itself. At first, we think it is we who approach this silence; in reality, it is this silence that draws us into itself. In the beginning, we get brief tastes of it and its inherent peace, and, in time, as we become more acquainted with it, we begin to fall in love with it. We make it our home. The more deeply we sink into it, the more it reveals its quality of peace and quiet joy. When we meet another person, we may notice this same silence in them. This shared silence then becomes the foundation and the fountain of our friendship, and this is the way these qualities are communicated and shared in the world.
