Very few people understand what silence is. Most of the people pretend that the silence is something negative, something empty. They actually pretend silence as noiselessness. This is a negative understanding about silence. Silence is utterly positive. It is not empty but overflowing with a music which you never heard before. It cannot be heard by ears. You can feel it only. This silence is present to every one of us, but we never try to hear or feel.
Silence is your inner world, which is utterly silent, which is eternally silent. Whatever happens around you, will never affect this silence. It will remain silent whatsoever happened to your life or not. This inner world has its own taste, own fragrance, own music. This world is immortal. From this everything is mortal, momentary.
You are the silence. It is not your silence.
The fragrance of meditation is love. You will feel tremendous love while you are in a deep meditation. This feeling is completely different, and you have never experienced this before. You have experienced the love of a couple. They drain all energy to get something in their relationship. It is very much materialistic and that is why frustration, boredom, nagging, fighting happen to their life. This fragrance is completely different. You go to deep meditation and then you will start feeling that fragrance. Mediation is flower and love is fragrance, love comes out of meditation.
This fragrance will generate sensitivity within you. The more you live in meditation, the more you will grow the sensitivity within you. One day you will be able to sense a little grass as well as big stars in the universe. You will be able to sense the whole universe in one glimpse.
