Enter into the Silence, into the Heart of Truth; For herein lies the Great Mystery where life is ever unfolding... Listen for the Music of the Spheres in the resounding Silence of the universe. May balance and harmony be your aim as you are drawn into the Heart of Love.
~ Nan Merrill from her interpretation of "Psalm 132" in PSALMS FOR PRAYING

Meditative silence is like the luster of green summer grass; to appreciate this living silence, learn to listen attentively. Enter into silence and let it drink you.
