"One of the principles of straight living is the practice of silence. For the voice of God can be heard in the region of your heart only when the tongue is stilled and the storm is stilled and the waves are calm. There will be the temptation for others to shout when you talk to them in whispers. Set the level of your tone yourself; as low as possible, as high as necessary to reach the outermost boundary of the circule you are addressing. Conserve sound since it is the treasure of the element Akasa, an emanation from God himself."
