Silence: The Power of Quiet in a World Full of Noise
About This Book
An exploration of the healing power of silence in an age of constant noise and digital stimulation. Thich Nhat Hanh argues that most people are afraid of silence because they are afraid of the contents of their own mind — and offers mindfulness practices for entering the silence beneath the noise, finding what he calls "the thundering silence" that is both the source of genuine creativity and the foundation of inner peace.
What You'll Learn
The noise we surround ourselves with is often a strategy for avoiding the silence in which difficult feelings and the deeper questions of life become audible. True silence is not the absence of sound but a quality of inner spaciousness that can be cultivated even in the midst of outer noise. The deepest silence is not empty but full — it is the ground from which all genuine insight, love, and creativity arise.
