Meister Eckhart taught that silence is the highest expression of the divine, famously stating, "There is nothing in the world that resembles God so much as silence."
Thank you so much for this article and for the audio version. As visually impaired artist, I appreciate the inclusivity. In my studio I have a framed card that reads:
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is.”
And I believe this whole heartedly. Thank you again.
Quiet, for me, at least an hour of quiet every morning, just letting go, brings in all the good stuff for the rest of my day. It was difficult to quiet my thoughts at first but once learned, cherished.
For me making the effort-going to bed and getting up earlier is worth the peace and joy I have gained. And creating seems to come so naturally.
A great read I read in the 1980’s from an artist living long ago-Florence Shovel Shinn is one of my favorites and for me one of my “ go to” books.
This is one of my favorite pieces Eugene! Thank you for writing it for us. I love Einstein's point of view about viewing everything as a miracle.

Excellent article, and from my experience, the LORD speaks most to me when my mind is quiet.
Psalms 46:10 NKJV
[10] Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
Psalms 46:10 TPT
[10] Surrender your anxiety. Be still and realize that I am God. I am God above all the nations, and I am exalted throughout the whole earth.

Brilliant conversation on Consciousness. The fear of AI seems to diminish under this thought mode.
