Experiences of participants : The hidden power of our Art of Silence program

 

Our AMC faculty Dr.Arun Madhavan  recently  returned after conducting an  Art of Silence program in a rural location. The course witnessed deep silence kept by the participants. Though many of them had to retire to their  homes to cook food and  tend to  their school- going children,  they were back at the venue for the morning yoga at the time announced, maintaining strict silence all through. On the final day, when the silence was broken, he saw one participant who looked  very content and cheerful  to continue with his silence. After the closing ceremonies, Arunji was heading for the airport  when the phone rang and the caller introduced himself as the one who didn't  break his silence at the course venue. He had a wish to come across to the airport to bid farewell but Arunji dissuaded him. Instead he asked him if there is a location en route the airport where he could wait and meet him.

Traffic was smooth all the way until Arunji's car  reached a point where the traffic on the right side of the road was packed and stagnant,  the left side was free. The  host on the wheel saw an ambulance coming in front of him offering  little maneuverability of  space for the ambulance to pass through. He took the car over the pavement, only to to see the left wheel hanging into a 6 feet canal trench. Upon this sudden development they saw a familiar face rushing to the spot. He put his hand under the chassis to effortlessly lift the  stuck vehicle weighing over one tonne  and ease it on  the road. He was none other than the participant who was  waiting there to meet Arunji and his gesture was very timely and swift.  After the pleasantries he asked  a simple question- How did I do it?

Arunji's reply was "your  deep silence and  spontaneous  stretching of your hand gave you this extraordinary energy.  There is an aphorism in Sanskrit which affirms this  "  ‘मौनं सर्वार्थ साधिके’ maunam Sarvartha Satakam".   In  Bangalore they say in Kannada: ‘summaniru manave, nee brahmanaguve’  ‘Remain quiet, O mind, you will become Brahman.’  

Self effort and Grace at work.

 

Please announce in Follow Up & Satsangs & reach it to more number of people to take part in the course.

Warm Regards,

For STC-Karnataka
