Welcome, seeker. Your question touches upon the deepest truth of our journey: the paradox of divine conversation. Many people spend their lives waiting for God’s booming voice or a dramatic flash of light. But the deepest guidance, the truth of creation, only speaks to us in Silence. Not the silence of an empty room, but the stillness of a mind that has finally set its burden down.

Your mind is a marvellous instrument, yet it is also a relentless chatterbox. It replays old tapes, plans the future, and judges the present. This noise is what blocks the divine signal. You can be standing on the highest mountain or sitting in a quiet meditation hall, but if the internal chatter is running, the voice of the divine remains unheard.

Peace is the Sign

How do you know you are getting closer? You don’t need a certificate or a visible halo. The only sign that we are in Silence is peace. This is not the excitement of a new achievement or the temporary relief of a problem solved. It is an unshakable inner stillness.

When you drop deep enough into the Silence, the frantic need to fix or figure things out dissolves. You realise the answers were always there, waiting behind the curtain of your own thoughts. Peace is the unmistakable signature of truth. It confirms that you have stepped out of the mind’s frantic story and into the quiet reality of the moment.

The Blessing of Trauma and the Mind

Here is the greatest teaching of the path: The very things that feel like obstacles are the breadcrumbs leading you home.

Our trauma and the relentless activity of the mind are not curses; they are blessings in disguise. If everything felt perfect all the time, we would have no incentive to seek deeper. The pain of the past, the anxiety about the future, and the looping pattern of worry in the mind are all signals. They are flags telling you, “This path is incomplete. Look within.”

When the mind struggles, when an old wound flares up, that is your guide saying, “Stop. Be still. Where is the Silence right now?”

The turbulence of the mind creates the necessary friction to force your attention inward. You would never value the Silence so deeply without first experiencing the noise. So, instead of fighting your trauma or hating your restless thoughts, recognise them as the divine guidance system. They are the breadcrumbs, lovingly laid out, leading you step by step away from the noise and closer to the profound Silence where peace resides. This is the only place God speaks.
