In this chapter, Colum Kenny takes the reader on a silence-walk through the history of religions from Egypt and ancient Greek culture to Christianity, balanced by reporting on silence in India and other Eastern traditions, as well as in Judaism and Buddhism. Kenny masterfully weaves the story about facets of all these traditions that claim one and the same thing—“God is silence.” He also sets the deep silence experience in meditation in relation to religious experience—and separates one from the other in order to open this experience for people who do not want to join any kind of religious group thinking.
