« Even if you are exposed to the hustle and bustle of
life, you must understand the importance of remaining silent in your inner
being. You can achieve this by making a habit of studying the thoughts and
feelings that pass through you. Several times a day, think to stop for a moment
and analyze what is happening inside you, and as soon as you notice the
slightest agitation, the slightest discord, do your best to put it right.
Otherwise, when you want to meditate and do some real spiritual work, you will
not be able to; there will always be something jarring, some commotion stopping
you, and gradually, in the face of the difficulties you encounter, you will
give up practicing meditation, even though it is so beneficial.
Inner silence is such a difficult state to achieve! You
should think all day about preparing the right conditions for it. The first
condition is to nurture only harmonious thoughts and feelings. As soon as you
feel yourself becoming impatient, irritable, there is no point looking
elsewhere for excuses or explanations: you have allowed disharmony to
infiltrate you. So, do something about it! »
