Question - Gurudev, would you speak about the importance of silence. How do we practice it?

Gurudev Sri Sri - (Maintains a few moments of silence) That's it. Take a moment, observe your breath, calm your mind, and relax your body. You find such peace and so much love within you. We are all born with this gift of love and peace. Somehow we forget to look within, which is of utmost importance. A few moments to introspection is very necessary. Either eyes open or closed, being in the moment, now, and relaxing suddenly connects you to yourself.
