Global Silent Minute and The Yoga of Life

Global Silent Minute’s 2025 theme is to resurrect Truth through Silence as Action.

Agni Yoga is the Yoga of Fire or Synthesis and hence the Yoga of Everything, that is, the Yoga of Life.  And it is said that the one who realizes the true Yoga of Life knows that the lightning of truth can strike down, but can also resurrect.  Agni Yoga, 156

In the Agni Yoga Teachings, we are often reminded that the meaning of life was more profoundly apprehended in ancient epochs and that many remarkable contemporary discoveries have led thought away from the essence into the material realm of the mechanics.  Inspired by Brotherhood, 510

As Humanity re-orientates its compass to the essence of Life and embraces the multi-dimensionality of our existence, we resurrect Truth through practicing the art of thinking through the heart.  We thus consciously regenerate our thinking and take it to a new level through our understanding of the three worlds.  The art of thinking is the way to harmony and the Thinker encouraged His Disciples to be “artists who could create new kinds of harmony”.  Supermundane, 341.

It’s not surprising that a key symbol used to help anchor the mystery of our multi-dimensional existence is the pyramid. It’s simultaneously ancient and yet holds revelation for now in relation to the art of thinking in the three worlds.

Among the interpretations of the pyramids pay attention to that one which delineates the three Worlds. The top represents the Fiery World, where all is one; the middle part represents the Subtle World, where the essences are already separated; and the base is the dense World. This division is the most profound, and the gradations between the Worlds are symbolically portrayed by the pyramid. Such a symbol is truly significative. The dense World so widely separates the natures that it is even difficult to perceive how they can be fused into one on the Fiery summit. Yet the pyramid was built for the summit. Its foundation was laid only to bring all sides harmoniously together and to completion. Let each one ponder on how many times the point of the summit will be contained in the foundation. The fiery point must rule the unbridled, rudimentary stones upon the earth’s surface. A great deal of just care must be applied in order to safeguard the Fiery completion. One must think about the summit. One should not be concerned that already in the Subtle World the essences are clearly separated. The edge of the pyramid may be divided into four parts, also into five, seven, eight, or any other number, but the three Worlds will remain the foundation of the basic division. One may imagine over the visible pyramid the identical invisible one, in an infinitely expanded concept. But this is beyond earthly language.  Fiery World III, 519.
