The Hebrew word 'Sabbath' doesn't mean Sunday.
It means Stop. In a culture that is always on the Go, how do you stay?
How to stop and rest in eternal Presence?
This ever-changing creation arises and dissolves in boundless stillness. This ever-blossoming chaos appears and disappears in absolute silence. Just as a mirage shimmers in empty dessert air, the manifest world and the unmanifest silence seem to be opposite values: yet they are one and the same.
Stillness pervades action, silence pervades the Word. The key to the unity is Non-Resistance. Non-Resistance melts noise into silence, and chaos into stillness.
