When Silence Answers

Not all answers need words.

Sometimes, the most profound answers come not in explanation but in silence, in emptiness.

You ask, and the world does not speak. But something inside you settles anyway.

There is a kind of silence that doesn’t ignore you, it holds you. It doesn’t fill the space. It becomes the space. And within that space, something shifts, something moves.

Maybe the answer was never meant to be found.

Maybe it was meant to be lived into.

From the Bhagavad Gita:

“The peace of God is with them whose mind and soul are in harmony, who are free from desire and wrath, who know their own soul.”

When silence answers, it doesn’t solve. It dissolves.

you kept asking,

you kept waiting,

and then,

nothing,

no sign, no word,

just space, just emptiness,

but slowly, your breath softened,

your hands unclenched,

and what once felt urgent, simply… didn’t,

not because you knew,

but because you no longer needed to,

and maybe that was the answer all along.

If you find yourself unheard, unanswered, uncertain. Wait..!!

Not for the reply, but for the quiet, the silence, the emptiness inside the question.

And remember,

You are not being ignored. You are being invited.

You are not unanswered. You are being returned to what matters.
