@tweleven ...or, maybe it works b/c of theism, and you just don't realize it ;)

The Carthusian silence isn't a silence of satisfaction, nor is it a silence of anticipation. It is a silence of listening, a silence of voice which manifests a silence of the heart, an unhurried, patient waiting for the voice of God, utter passivity and responsiveness to His call by a heart freed from all earthly attachments by its vows and ready to respond at a moment's notice.

@tweleven I don't want to bait, or even argue, but I have never known an atheist who devoted his life to this kind of silence. There's silence, and then there's silence.

It is amazing. The filmmakers really help transport you into that silence too.

Not all of us find gods. Silence works without theism just as well.
