Inner stillness is perhaps our greatest ally. Gandhi once wrote that silence brings "the highest potency and is self-acting power." Prayer, meditation, reading scripture (which is, to me, alive with silence, embedded with sacred codes about our deepest mind) -- even quiet walks -- become healing acts. These quiet the world's noises and provide clues about who we are and our healthiest directions.
There is no cost to have the Friends of Silence monthly letter sent to you each month.
For the past 32 years, a small band of dedicated friends have poured their hearts and love into Friends of Silence.
Each month we send out the newsletter in print and email to a growing community of over 10,000 people.
The monthly newsletter of contemplative quotes remains free and is made possible by your generosity and support.
If our work brings you any hope and a sense of belonging, then please consider supporting our labor of love with a donation.
And if you’ve already given, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU.
