As Barks writes in his introduction to this collection, "Silence is a deeper way that lovers have found." Rumi's silence is that of the chef who hands you a spoon to let you taste, now that the recipe-reading is over. The silence becomes an inward communion, an experience beyond any doctrinal description.
