“Observing daily silence periods requires the diligent following of a process. It is not about attaining a state of thoughtlessness. That’s not possible. And that’s not required either. What is possible, and important, is that you can still the mind and train it to attend only to the present. And like with everything else in Life, mastering this process requires disciplined application and rigorous practice. It is only through stilling the mind, through being in the now, that you learn the art of being happy despite the circumstances.”

“Few have cared to appreciate that the job of a switchboard operator demanded a high level of communication skills and an exceptional grip over the English language, besides decent telephone manners. This is a major reason why switchboard operating was one of the first careers completely dominated by women. Yet, the lady telephone operator has been parodied, often in bad taste, in the media, in films and on television soaps. One important reason why women were preferred is because they talked in soft tones, sometimes in whispers and had excellent telephone manners. This has been a trait injected into the female of the species almost from the time she learns how to speak. Imposing silence on women is one of the most invisible forms of violence perpetrated on girls and women across the world.”
