Inner Message

From Leviticus, the rabbis notice that the biblical “leprosy” afflicting a person may arise from harmful speech. The cure, then, begins with silence. This meditation invites us to step away from the noise of our own words and enter a quiet chamber within. Leviticus speaks also of childbirth, recalling an ancient teaching: that in the womb a child knows the whole Torah, a deep and wordless wisdom, forgotten only at the moment of birth. In silence we return there. Beneath the chatter, beneath the need to explain or defend, lives an embryonic knowing—subtle, patient, whole. Sit without speaking. Let the mind soften. Ask your question not with the tongue but with the heart. Then listen for the faint memory of the wisdom you once carried, before words.
