GATE OF SILENCE
The threshold where noise gives way to listening
Essence
Before any insight
there is a moment of quiet.
A pause between movements.
A doorway
where the mind loosens its grip
and awareness begins to settle.
Silence is not empty.
It is the space
in which everything becomes clearer.
Invitation
Notice the moment
when the world grows quieter.
Not because sound disappears,
but because attention softens.
At the gate of silence
you do not force stillness.
You simply step through.
Practice
Pause where you are.
Let your shoulders soften.
Take one slow breath
without trying to change anything.
Imagine a doorway of quiet.
Step through it
with your next breath.
