All is contained within the silence of death, the quietest and the loudest sound in the universe.

About This Quote

A quote from the Parables of Buddha, “All is contained within the silence of death, the quietest and the loudest sound in the universe.” The teachings of Buddha are often difficult to accept, but they are so important for our spiritual development. We die, and therefore we are already dead. We exist in this world of suffering because of our past actions. Our lives are not our own. We must see this truth to have freedom from suffering.
