Silo’s Message – The Book (V. Intimation of Meaning)

I have read Silo’s Message many times, mostly in pieces. I have decided to publish it here, in it’s entirely. The message is in 3 parts, The Book, The Experience and the Path. Today is chapter five of The Book.

V. Intimation of Meaning
The third day.

1. At times I have anticipated events that later took place.
2. At times I have grasped a distant thought.
3. At times I have described places I have never been.
4. At times I have recounted exactly what took place in my absence.
5. At times an immense joy has surprised me.
6. At times total comprehension has overwhelmed me.
7. At times a perfect communion with everything has filled me with ecstasy.
8. At times I have broken through my reveries and seen reality in a new way.
9. At times I have seen something for the first time yet recognized it as though I had seen it before.

…And all this has made me think. It is clear to me that without these experiences I could not have emerged from the non-meaning.
