Magic path current challenge: silence

From now on, pay attention to silence. Look for it even at the moments of great noise. Notice your feelings in silence. Look for silence between your thoughts. I began the exercise of listening to the "sounds of the world" and kept at it for two months, as don Juan had specified.
