Carlos Castaneda described “Appointment with Inner Silence” as moments during the day when we stop our daily affairs and routines of the outer world to connect with our internal world. He said that inner silence can be accumulated and that these appointments are a source of calm and confidence, essential to reassess our Intentions and priorities.

It was through a sustained systematic practice and cultivation of inner silence, he said, that we could regain a sense of clarity and purpose in our lives.

In these classes you accumulate experiences of inner silence. As you accumulate the mood of silence, you automatically become more adept at avoiding and stepping out of moods that bring your energy down: anger, guilt, shame, resentment, envy, boredom, etc. From the position of silence, the problems of everyday life become less overpowering and more manageable.
