The Silent Communication

How absurd is this title, The Silent Communication....can communication be possible in silence? And if it is, then how much effective will it be? Last week, I got a chance to go in the 3 days silence program of art of living. Those three days we were totally silent, even no talking with our self, no facebook, no mp3, no mobiles nothing, means no distraction from outside world. For someone (specially girls) it is impossible to be silent for few minutes, forget about three days. But the experience we all had was amazing.
There were in total 21 participants in the course and I could personally feel a strong connection with each one of them.
I like these lines from the course "the purpose of words is to create silence" but we never speak like that. We speak what ever comes to our mind and later on we feel sorry for that. Speaking too much also reduces the power of our speech. But when we speak after keeping silence for some time our power of speech is tremendous. By being silent, we start feeling the joy from inside. We don't need external factor to be happy.
That is how I am feeling now a days.
The course venue was in the middle of black forest in Germany, called Bad Antogast. It is international center of art of living in Germany. It was my second visit to that place. The place is so vibrant and full of energy. The day course started, snow also started there. The first snow of the season was very beautiful.
The teacher, who took the course, his name was Christopher Kiran Byrt. He was a German and have been in art of living from around 25 years. His silence was very strong. He doesn't need any word for communication that you can easily feel in his presence.
So for the first time I realized that it is possible to communicate even in silence and this communication is even more deeper and strong.
