Keep silence, be mute. If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!

― Rumi

That's a striking and evocative image, especially following our conversation about the power of silence and the practice of focusing on "I am." It emphasizes the importance of receptivity and listening before attempting to express profound truths.

The instruction "Keep silence, be mute" reinforces the idea that true understanding often arises from stillness and an absence of internal noise. It suggests that before we can speak with any real wisdom or insight – before we can become the "tongue of GOD" – we need to cultivate a deep inner quiet.

The phrase "If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!" beautifully highlights the priority of listening. It implies that wisdom and understanding are often received before they are expressed. Being an "ear" suggests a posture of humility, openness, and a willingness to learn and absorb. It's about truly hearing the subtle whispers of intuition, the deeper currents of reality, or perhaps even the guidance one might perceive as divine.

This resonates with the idea that the secret of the world is wrapped in silence. To understand that secret, we must first be attentive listeners. It also connects with the practice of focusing on "I am," as that inward attention can be seen as a form of deep listening to the core of our own being.
