It doesn’t need to be more beautiful, deeper, or more meaningful. You don’t need to add anything, no ceremony, no altar, no philosophy. There is nothing you need to change not in yourself, not in the unfolding. Your intimate meeting with this moment is  the altar, is  the ceremony, is  the philosophy come alive. You don’t have to go anywhere. Simply softly sink back into the Self. Everything  will effortlessly fall into place. Life — the Self...]]></description><link>https://www.soulfulsilence.com/en/post/about-intimacy</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6936b4f956b41fa2f8b7fab3</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 Dec 2025 11:28:33 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/074a4b_e93afbde8a804ccbaeacbb2cb5f77f6a~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>gangasoulfulsilenc</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Over Intimiteit ]]></title><description><![CDATA[Rust maar hier, middenin het leven precies zoals het is. Het hoeft niet mooier, diepgaander of betekenisvoller te zijn. Je  hoeft niets toe te voegen. Geen ceremonie, geen altaar, geen filosofie. Je  hoeft niets te veranderen niet aan jezelf, niet aan de ontvouwing. Je diepe ontmoeting met dit moment  ís het altaar, ís de ceremonie, ís de tot leven gekomen filosofie. Je hoeft nergens naartoe. Zink maar zachtjes terug in Zelf. Alles valt moeiteloos op haar plek.

We come into contact with something — with That  — which we experience as infinitely still, empty, and spacious. It is as if we are standing at the edge of an ocean of infinite emptiness, imagining we know what it would be like to let ourselves sink deeper into that silent void. We imagine it as formless, timeless, without a center, without expression. Without fulfillment. Naturally, that...]]></description><link>https://www.soulfulsilence.com/en/post/appearing-in-being</link><guid isPermaLink="false">68f61ed304b472953c78be35</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 Oct 2025 11:45:07 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/074a4b_275818943c594198b27e392edcffbd58~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>gangasoulfulsilenc</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Verschijnen in Zijn]]></title><description><![CDATA[Er is een moment op het pad waarop we beginnen te vrezen dat we iets kostbaars zullen kwijtraken — onszelf. We maken contact met iets — met Dat — wat we ervaren als oneindig stil, leeg en ruim. We staan dan als het ware op de rand van een oceaan van oneindige leegte en dénken te weten hoe het zou zijn wanneer we onszelf dieper in die stille leegte zouden onderdompelen. We stellen het ons voor als vormeloos, tijdloos, zonder centrum, zonder expressie. Zonder vervulling.
