After discussing Shehaan’s stuttering iceberg with Keith and thinking about whether its really a stuttering or a communication iceberg, I also feel like extending this to avoidance. Yes we should work on avoiding all avoidance but then are all avoidance stammering related? Don’t we avoid to speak many a times despite the fact that we may not stammer? Are we in a position to distinguish such non-stammering related avoidance with stammering avoidance? Sachin will be more close to this as ‘silence’ can be ‘spiritual’ as well as ‘stammer induced’ in our case….
Is all avoidance stammering related?

(April 4, 2010 - 1:07 am)Yes, Akash- you are right. I know a saint who has been silent for many years- not because of stammering- He just discovered that silence is so wonderful.. When his attendants read out the content of my Self Help Manual to him- he smiled and wrote out a cryptic comment: What? Nothing about SILENCE?"
He meant- the manual talks a lot about all kind of approaches and techniques about communication- but what about communication at a deeper level with the Self?
Now, the thing is, we all are at different stages of life and our needs are so different..But yes, a discussion and sharing of experiences certainly helps everyone..
