Know, Say, Do

When one reaches contemplation, then awareness is born.  Without awareness, we are in sleeping mode and indulging in unnecessary chats that could have misleading and destructive impact on ourselves and others.

Once we know our inner-self in depth, comfort talking will cease. We will contemplate fully before any utterance.  We will speak less and contemplate more.  The more we contemplate the lesser the necessity to speak the greater the silence.  The state of silence is to be our own witness. 

We are conscious about the significance of our thoughts and their translation into words and actions. We think twice before we  indulge in generalizations and continue to think and speak untruth and believe so firmly in it. Consequently, we keep navigating the misery map. 

I realized I was sliding down the untruth path until I became aware of how it had become the center of my thoughts.  How I blocked out reality and living in delusion became second nature. I am thankful that my awareness helps me to come out of this vicious cycle and now working on preventing one human being from being caught in the same wheel.

"Silence can be louder than words" it has often been proclaimed. Silence can be on the outside while inner chatter continues. I am striving towards both and the more difficult is to be silent inside. All kinds of thought and discussion continue in the mind even when we are alone. I am trying to be at peace with myself and learning to watch my thoughts more and engage them less.
