[00:00:00] Hi, this is Rishabh and this is Vanita. Welcome to Connect The Dots podcast where we want to discuss facts of life To help the next generation. Some of the topics we will be discussing about here are parenting, schooling, talents, life hacks, new trends, travel mindset and more
[00:00:18] Hey Rishabh Have you ever thought about why Buddhist monks practice silence? Okay, forget the Buddhist monks even in India there are many centers like the Vipassana where people go for 10 days of
[00:00:32] practicing only being silent and that's something that I've really been intrigued by in terms of what can it actually teach us So what are some things you think that you feel silence can actually teach us? You know Silence isn't empty
[00:00:48] It's full of answers, but the only thing is we're too busy to seek it. Wow Silence isn't empty So you feel it's full of answers. Okay, and When we are quiet we can embrace it and the noise inside us fades
[00:01:08] So what happens when the noise inside us fades? You know There's some clarity that emerges from Insiding and it helps you Really be yourself Wow, that's a powerful lesson What is something else let me think now I'll think of what else
[00:01:30] I feel also like like you said silence brings clarity silence also brings perspective So when we are silent when you're practicing not talking the truth inside us That was drowned because of the noise outside. I think gets revealed. What do you think? Yeah
[00:01:51] So you're trying to say that the silence? Silence is the noise Yeah, silence silence is the noise correct and and in the world that we live You don't know noise need not just be somebody talking to you. What's up is noise? Instagram is noise
[00:02:12] Facebook is noise everything is noise Okay, so there's so much of noise around us and just being silent actually Probably maybe it may help us find our way back
[00:02:26] We may be like so busy drowned in the noise around not knowing where we are and just practicing this good. I feel If I help you find your way back, can you think of something else? What else does silence teach? so The silence teaches us to listen more
[00:02:45] and In this it helps you listen to yourself to others and to the world around you Wow So sigh actually true if you stop talking you start listening more right? That's amazing and you know In a world that never stops talking the power of silence is often overlooked
[00:03:10] Wow, so Rishabh Do you think at any point in your life you'd want to try being silent Yeah Yeah, I think to a large extent martial arts somewhere Embraces that you know silence as a part of its way of life
[00:03:28] So I think you'll be definitely experiencing that shortly but even I want this was a question that I had in my mind for a long time and
[00:03:37] Definitely, you know after this discussion I feel I also want to give it a shot go to a center that practices silence for For a week or 10 days and see and I have a lot of people to shove a lot of our friends have done
[00:03:49] Vipassana for 10 days silence and they have really transformed as people There they really are people and and it's just amazing so I think guys if you haven't thought about it, they just tried out and you can just
[00:04:05] Experience it for yourself and I'm also going to do the same So hope you like this podcast and I'm gonna give it a reshup to sign up. Okay, so if you like this podcast Share it with your friends and this is connect the dots signing off. Bye
