The Power of Silence In order for us to survive in this world, we are forced to use words to communicate with others. In our early years, we learn the alphabet and, then to read and write. While going through school, while communicating with our friends and family, and while earning a living, we must use speech. From the time we are born, we are discouraged from experiencing the dimension of silence. It seems that language is the key element that makes us human, and without it, we cannot be a part of the human society. Just as the body and brain need rest, the soul needs an opportunity to unwind. Language is the result of the intellect urging the mouth to speak. The intellect is the nucleus of the body. The brain gives commands to the physical body, but the brain is entirely controlled by the soul. Silence not only benefits the body and the mind, but also the soul. Book of Wisdom “What is my purpose on earth?” is the question author and seeker Mohmood Valimohamed asks in the dedication of his fine new book. Book of Wisdom, this reviewer determined, not only sheds light on the question, the same light illuminates the path to discovery. Mr. Valimohamed, in easy to digest prose, leads the reader to an understanding of life by offering us enlightenment of what the Creator provides. For instance, “Suffering is a blessing in disguise.” It is the way your soul comes closer to God. “During periods of suffering, you explore the depths of your soul.” A means to encourage your spiritual growth dramatically is forgiveness, “First you must accept and forgive all the harm that has been done to you. Do not continue the cycle by responding angrily to the individual who mistreated you.” Another means is the power of silence. “Jesus Christ said, the kingdom of God is within you. The only way to get a glimpse of this kingdom is to go silently inside your self.” Book of Wisdom leads the reader through many other paths to find spiritual growth: Witnessing as a form of total meditation, total surrender of yourself, your ego, your aggression and your strategies to find humbleness, love of the material and, in its ultimate form, of God. With understanding to a degree this reviewer may never achieve, Mohmood Valimohamed leads the way. “Step by step, we rise higher and higher until finally, we are ready to join the universal consciousness.” Using both Eastern and Western philosophies, Book of Wisdom teaches that “The seed of enlightenment is in our hearts.” This precious gift is the purpose and value of this excellent book. Thank you, Mr. Valimohamed! "The Book of Wisdom is filled with deep insight and vision. Mohmood addresses complicated ideas in a very understandable manner. He shares esoteric wisdom through everyday happenings." Joann M. Turner, editor/publisher The Messenger ...Valimohamed's simple style also reveals gems of real spiritual and digestible brilliance: The person who forgives benefits more than the person forgiven. The more we learn to witness ourselves, the more we can Identify when we are acting out a role instead of living with authenticity...
