Speech Vs Silence

Hi all,

This is a contribution by our friend....Anand aka Andy.....

Speech dissipates energy, Silence conserves it.

Speech needs Company, Silence needs Solitude.

Speech is outside, Silence is inside.

Speech makes you self-centered, Silence makes you God-centered.

Speech is heard by creatures, Silence hears the Creator.

Speech receives appreciation, Silence receives adoration.

Speech seeks to conquer others, Silence helps to conquer oneself.

Speech is mind bound, Silence is soul bound.

Speech demands respect, Silence commands it.

Speech is self-expression, Silence is self-experience.

Speech asserts ego, Silence effaces it.

Speech is Human, Silence is Divine.
