Silence is the Best Form of Communication?

What is the best form of communication?

I recently read an article about which form of communication is the best and why. It stated that silence was the best form. This is because we find out more about ourselves while being silent, and therefore are better communicators as a result.

“Without this inner stillness, we become like a puppet pulled by the many different strings of external influences. This inner point of stillness is the seed of autonomy, which cuts the strings, and then the loss of energy eases.

Silence heals. It is clear like a mirror. The mirror does not blame or criticize but helps us to see things as they are, providing a diagnosis to release us from all types of wrong thinking.”

Finding inner silence is the hardest part, but once this is achieved, communications are greatly improved.

Do you believe in what this article is stating?
