World views
Is the ocean this big? said the little frog in the well.Jumping from one corner of the well to the other.
"Limited is your knowledge about the world, My friend! You know not what the world is like. I have seen this world", said the swan that had seen mighty ocean.
........
Instantly as he heard these remarks,Indra began to laugh. How pretentious was the claim of knowledge about the world by swan, confined as it was to a world no more than a speck of dirt in his vast empire spanning galaxies.
.......
Lord, who transcends space and time, smiled as he observed these conversations and thoughts. Yashoda seeing her baby smile in sleep, kissed him on forehead.

Very clever! A heart-warmer...
Silent wisdom attracts me immensely. I wonder why! Perhaps it is the lack of neither in thineself...
Bala, Everyone is full of the silent wisdom you speak of. Its a matter of turning the gaze...lets hope we can realise it one day :)
As an updanishadic verse delcares: "Tadantarasya sarvasya tadusravaysa bahyatah." (forgot which upanishad it is...)
means: Everything outside is a reflection of what is present inside.
