The Vedic Power of Silence (Maun Vrat)
The mental and spiritual effects of the vow of silence are profound. True stillness of mind and inner peace are the rewards. In his younger days, Rishis and Sadhus would meditate and remain in silence to practice maun vrat.
As the Mundaka Upanishad beautifully states:
“नायमात्मा प्रवचनेन लभ्यो न मेधया न बहुना श्रुतेन।”
Translation: “The Self is not attained by speech, intellect, or hearing much, but by one whom the Self chooses.”
