Gibran Khalil Gibran "Book: The Prophet" Extracted Lines

Gibran Khalil Gibran was a Lebanese-American writer, poet and visual artist. His famous work appeared as a "Book; The Prophet" where he said following lines in line with the main topic soul's inner voice:-

In the depth of my soul there is

A wordless song - a song that lives

In the seed of my heart.

It refuses to melt with ink on

Parchment; it engulfs my affection

In a transparent cloak and flows,

But not upon my lips.

It is a song composed by contemplation,

And published by silence,

And shunned by clamor,

And folded by truth,

And repeated by dreams,

And understood by love,

And hidden by awakening,

And sung by the soul.

Yet, within each of us lies a powerful inner guidance system, a wellspring of intuition and wisdom waiting to be tapped. This wisdom, often called the "soul's voice" or "intuition," can lead us to a more fulfilling and authentic life. Intuition, a hunch about a situation, or a strong urge to take a different path are all potential manifestations of the inner voice of the soul. Listening to the soul starts with awareness, with consciousness, with knowing what you are doing while you are doing it. The soul induced self awareness leads to divine guidance.  

Poem "The Voice" by Shel Silverstein

"The Voice" by Shel Silverstein

There is a voice inside of you

that whispers all day long,

"I feel that this is right for me,

I know that this is wrong."

No teacher, preacher, parent, friend

or wise man can decide

what's right for you - just listen to

the voice that speaks inside.

"There is many times in my life that I’ve learned how true this poem is. The power that comes when you decide to listen to what YOU want, not what the influences around us pressure, is more inner strength than can be imagined. We tell ourselves stories everyday. The personal narratives we tell daily create about the events we experience shape our views, which create our emotions and how we feel about life. If we actually took the time to really listen to the stories we tell ourselves that is where inner power comes and we then take control of our lives".

Any individual will also have similar expression as here " I like this poem a lot because it can be applied to many different situations and to a wide range of people. Although it may be simple and short, it has the ability to speak to a lot of people. All in all, remember no matter what happens and what you are faced with, always base your decisions on what you want to do and what you think is right. Only you can make the right decision for yourself."

Self aware humans, chained in a society, find commonality of purpose of life. One commonality that binds us all is the presence of a soul, which guides us through intuition or an inner voice. 



The fact of the matter is that a divine universal power speaks to, and through, each one of us, in various different ways. This universal power speaks through our soul's inner voice. We have the choice to move through life or LIVE it. When we truly listen to our souls' inner voices, we are connected to universal power, and are being guided, step by step, decision by decision, toward our greatest self.
