Reflection
Quietude
It is better to enrich yourself through purity of spirit and to be without anxiety and then to speak.
— Abba Sisoes
आत्मा की पवित्रता के माध्यम से खुद को समृद्ध करना और चिंता मुक्त होना और फिर बोलना बेहतर है।
— अब्बा सिसोएस
Why this matters:
Meaningful speech must emerge from a depth of settled peace. If we speak from a place of anxiety or mental clutter, our words only add to the world’s confusion. Quietude is the necessary preparation for any word that hopes to carry weight or light.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
सार्थक भाषण एक स्थापित शांति की गहराई से निकलना चाहिए। यदि हम चिंता या मानसिक अव्यवस्था के स्थान से बोलते हैं, तो हमारे शब्द केवल दुनिया के भ्रम को बढ़ाते हैं। शांति किसी भी उस शब्द के लिए आवश्यक तैयारी है जो वजन या प्रकाश ले जाने की उम्मीद करता है।
