THE DHARMA OF STILLNESS
We are busy. So incredibly busy.
Moving from one responsibility to another, checking our phones, answering messages, working, planning, worrying, scrolling, consuming information—running faster and faster like hamsters on a wheel.
And somewhere in all that movement, we forget how to be still.
But stillness can be uncomfortable. Because when everything becomes quiet, something fascinating happens.
You begin to hear the voice inside your head.
So try it.
Sit quietly. No phone. No music. No distraction.
Who is the voice in your head?
Who is asking the question?
And who is answering it?
Don’t rush to find an answer.
Just observe.
Perhaps that is where the exploration of consciousness begins—not by adding more information, but by becoming quiet enough to notice what is already there.
This Sunday evening, step off the wheel for a while.
Join Raymond Smith for The Dharma of Stillness—a gathering for conversation, gentle movement, breath, meditation, self-inquiry, and human connection.
No performance. No expectations. No need to know anything beforehand.
Come as you are.
