"Listening Creates a Holy Silence"
Listening creates a holy silence.
When you listen generously to people,
They can hear truth in themselves,
Often for the first time.
And in the "silence of listening", you can
Know yourself in everyone.
Eventually you may be able to hear, in
everyone and beyond everyone,
the Unseen singing softly
to itself in you.
Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D. is Clinical Professor of
Family and Community Medicine at UCSF School of Medicine and the
Founder and Director of the Institute for the Study of Health and Illness at Commonweal.
She is one of the pioneers of Relationship Centered Care and Integrative Medicine.
US News and World Report Best Graduate Schools has called The Healer’s Art,
her groundbreaking curriculum for medical students
“A profoundly innovative curriculum on reintegrating the
heart and soul into contemporary medicine and restoring medicine to its
integrity as a calling and a work of healing.”
