Indivisible

Wayne Dyer is one of my favorite authors, and recently I picked up one of his older books and began skimming it...
This is an excerpt I pulled out:
"God is that which is indivisible. There's only one omnipresent presence called God. This presence is everywhere and is the force that creates and sustains life. It can never be divided or cut into pieces. There's only one power in the universe, not two. Everything in your experience as a human being appears to be in duality, however. Up exists because of its opposite, down. Light exists because of dark; right exists because of wrong. You've never seen a person with a front who doesn't have a back. Our physical world is a world of dichotomies and combinations of opposites, always divisible.
Silence, however, is one experience you can have that's indivisible. You cut silence in half, and all you get is more silence. There's only silence. Therefore silence is your one way to experience the oneness and the indivisibility of God. This is why you want to meditate. This is how you know God rather than having to settle for knowing about God.
You will find your answers in the silence. Remember: It's out of the void, the emptiness, that everything was created. When you write a musical note, the silence from which it comes is just as much a part of the note as is the sound. So it is with healing any thing or any relationship. Going into the quiet and listening will inspire you."
