At Canyonlands, the silence was so intense I could hear my ears ring. In that silence - thick with the reality of "Presence" - I experienced a sense of mutual bliss, a sort of afterglow in which both Father Sky (God) and Mother Earth (Sophia) are lost in love, emptied out in ecstatic self-abandon into the space between them. And that "space between," I discover, is located within my own mind and heart, and within the mind and heart of every human seeker who enters the temple of sacred silence.
