An ancient means to relate to one species to the other was by means of communication. It could be through touch, feel, thought, feelings, words or speech and actions or deeds. Often it is observed that when some one in a great bad situation shares the troubles with confident or a friend the situation apparently feels much lighter to the sufferer. The graveness of the matter might start to loose it weight as soon as it is shared with someone. Discussion leads to more ways to resolve a situation. When someone is deep inside a dark pit, help given from outside the pit a faster solution than trying to climb out of the pit oneself which might take lots of effort and time and mighty be unsuccessful. For help to be given or solutions to be provided, we need to communicate.
Master Choa Kok Sui always said, Right thoughts Right speech and right actions. Lord Buddha said “Right Expression”
Now when we express ourselves, we are able to get over self-inhibitions. Lack of communication can make one full of assumptions, fears, doubts, etc. I would like to quote Torkom Saraydarian here who says, “Find moments in your life in which you had communication with people. You will see that most of our tensions, disappointments, sorrows, pain, and anxiety are the result of a break in our communication.”
