InDependent
An interesting insight into the hidden depths of this wonder word. Independent -- lets open up this box. The two coins that emerge are 1. Intra Dependant - within 2. Inter Dependant - outside When we look at the word on the surface level, independent , how misleading it is, as though it indicates "Not dependant at all". This is the language of the mind. The inner meaning of this wonder word is the freedom to travel between the Intra to Inter and vice versa . A truly independent person is one who can keep travelling between the two worlds --the inner and the outer. This reminds me of the meaning of Peace and Silence. Generally, it is said, "I am at Peace" -- indicating the outside world. Whereas , it is said, " I am in Silence"-- the inner world. To wrap it up in the Golden words of Wisdom by The Living Master, Swami. Akshara , " The Freedom to move from Sound to Silence and from Silence to Sound is ENLIGHTENMENT"
