About This Quote

Your mind has a flood of questions. There is but one teacher Who can answer them. Who is that teacher? Your silence-loving heart. The question "What is the meaning of life?" is a common one and for many people this is the first question to be asked and considered as an answer.

However, if you look deeper than your mind's flood of questions then you will see that there is only one teacher to answer them. That question can only be answered by listening to our own silence-loving heart. In other words, don't search for answers from outside yourself, because you will never find them.

Only by listening to your own silent heart will you learn the truth about life's meaning.
