Episode notes
Silence As Divine Language
- Silence functions as the deepest language of the divine, with words as mere translations.
- Samaneri Jayasāra frames silence as primary: 'Silence is the language of God. All else is poor translation.'

- Love strips away veils continuously, asking surrender and a step beyond ordinary sense.
- Rumi's lines read by Samaneri Jayasāra urge to 'let go of life' and 'take a step without feet' as thresholds of devotion.

- Wake to spiritual possibility at dawn and ask clearly for what you truly want.
- Samaneri Jayasāra repeats Rumi's refrain: 'The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don't go back to sleep.'
