This is not the silence of a stone, but creative silence. We have to find it for ourselves. We decrease activity until silence becomes creative, and we sit in creative silence and close the gates of perception for insight into the content of life.”

“All problems in life arise from some weakness of mind.

In order to root out any problem of life it is only necessary to be brought out of ignorance, to be brought to knowledge.”
