Slide Notes

For Laura Hamilton, Silence is about hearing God rather than about us "not speaking." Silence is a right-brain activity. The proscribed activities in this Deck are rejected insofar as they are left-brained activities. They might not be completely prohibited, provided that during this retreat they are practiced as right-brained activities.

Silence is related to the imagination of sound.
