A talk given by Phiroz Mehta at Dilkusha, Forest Hill, London on 16th October 1981
The importance of silence. Silence of tongue — “holding one’s brain.” In the pure psyche, defilements are out, no reaction of lust, greed, hate, fear. Sati, watchfulness, develops sensitivity, mental, spiritual. It reveals what we are, what the world is like. We see “I am the world, the world is me.” Then we cease to criticise others.
