The title of this book - "Silent Training" - at first glance may seem strange, even paradoxical. But when we talk about meditation, we find ourselves in a world where, according to tradition, the truth is transmitted directly, in silence, with the help of a look, a gesture, a touch. One of the most famous examples is the “flower sermon” of the Buddha, when he came to speak to a large gathering people, and his "lecture" was to show the flower! As Sri Chinmoy says, “All true spiritual Masters teach silent meditation.” The book covers a full range of topics and contains a selection of Sri Chinmoy's best writings on the subject.
