Words, whether they are vocalized into sounds, or remain unspoken as thoughts, can cast an almost hypnotic spell on you.
You easily lose yourself in them, and become hypnotized into implicity. Believing, that when you attach a word to something you know what it is.
The fact is, you don't know. You have only covered up the mystery with a label.
Everything, a bird, a tree, even a simple stone, and certainly a human being is ultimately unknowable.
Becoming shallow, lifeless, deadened, to life unfolding around you within.
Grasping the awe inside around you.
When you stare a flower or a bird let it be without imposing a word or label to it.
A sense of awe and wonder arises within you and takes you to the source.
When you don't cover up the world with words, a sense of the miraculous returns to your life that was lost long ago.
The quicker you attach words to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to the miracle of life that continuously unfolds within and around you.
All we can perceive and experience is the surface layer of reality, less than the tip of the iceberg.
Listen to silence.
Listen to silence.
Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn't very much.
