Silence Heals

IT'S CLEARLY SEEN THAT ALL THIS IS A DREAM

Author: So, what would you say to someone who asked you, “What do I have to do to live like that?” Because it surely will happen.

Yolande: I have total confidence in this invisible silence. So, the only thing I could say, or so it seems, would be “Be what you are right now … and let spontaneity do what it must.” It cannot be understood, or learnt, nor known, nor willed into existence, so let yourself be - what else?

If someone were to ask me what they should do to live like this, I think I would probably simply sit quietly with this person, and let silence take action. Words or a gesture might manifest, saturated with silence, because they arise out of silence, not of their own accord. So, yes, we would share this silence.

This spontaneity that seizes and holds me in this ‘thing’ takes care of problems at their source – for they appear in the background. I see events taking place, situations happening; and it’s seen clearly that it is all a dream, an illusion, that it does not exist … even if it appears to.

Author: Yolande doesn’t exist either?

Yolande: I don’t know what I am. It can’t be explained. But I am not what I thought I was. This is what has so radically changed.

It’s fantastic! The problem is solved. All I have to do is allow it all to appear and disappear, in the background – including Yolande.

Living this way leads to a much greater sensitivity. The intensity doesn’t leave any room for anything else. All the different parts of my body feel so alive that I am never bored – I feel things rather than think them. However, the intensity can be very varied; tranquility is always there but if there is nothing happening around me, and let’s say for example that I lie down, the intensity immediately increases, opening up a space where there is nothing – no body, no senses, or at least not in the way we usually mean that. There is nothing but sensation; not what you would call physical sensation, but very powerful explosions that I can’t fully describe. There’s a feeling that I might never come back – it is so searingly explosive.
