Silence is... the sound of one clapping hand - I love this koan.

Silence is... the outter absence of noise? ... the inner peace?

Silence can be encountered... in the depths of the oceans? in the depths of the Universe?

What is the sound of a planet revolving? Of a star shining?

How many meanings can silence bear? An angered silence, a happy silence, an embarassed silence...

I love silence.

Smile Hii All...

I do have my own interpretation of silence...

Silence is the graceful period of patience....
in the midst of unsolving matters
in the rhythm of emotion
without any conclusion....

Silence is the language of the heart...
where the lips is closing
and the language is expression
in the rhythm of impression

An exploration of the mind.... when language is not an interpretation

Silence is not losing nor winning...
silence is emotion without any conclusion
and language is not an interpretation....to express the feelings
from the heart...

Silence is not begging, not shyness but doubtfulness
that affect your well being...

Sometimes...silence can be beauty...
and refreshing to be alone...
silence is natural when nature smiles...
silence is beauty...patience and wise.

Silence is the wisdom of not waisting one's breath in vain.

I love silence at certain times. I love it because it helps you clear your mind and forget about all of the things we must do daily. |
To define silence, you must at first figure out what is noise/distraction/life...
To me silence is the absence of sound or anything that may annoy you. To some the sound of birds churping could be silence, while others prefer to hear absolutely nothing at all (those who like ear plugs and things like that). However, besides the technical defintition of silence, you can actually determine silence through another sense.... Can anyone figure it out??
