Quiet Awareness
Quiet Awareness
A balanced child is a quiet child because he is tuned closely to nature, and naturally unfolds his higher nature as he matures. One's higher nature is his intellectual plane of thinking where analysis, deduction, and natural discrimination become a natural part of his existence. Only man in his confused state becomes a noisemaker, spreading confusion and chaos all over the land.
A quiet and serious-minded person is naturally closer to nature; and being so, his awareness becomes more acute and he senses things far deeper than does the average individual. The reason of being is contained within being, and being within must be contacted through the higher senses divorced from the outer path of form, sense, emotion, noise, and confusion. This is why a deep problem requires quiet concentration and reflection, and why noises are so distracting.
Balance of mind sets a natural rhythm that creates order in the functions of the body; all things take place naturally and functionally without creating mental disturbance. Disorder in the body is the result of confusion of mind, which through greater degeneration of the body and nerve centres reacts and causes greater confusion of mind in what is termed pain, or fear, which is man's awareness of confusion uncontrolled.
