Whisper

What is so interesting about the whisper? “Nothing”, some people might say. “It is just talking quietly.” But it isn’t. Whisper and notice that you are not using your vocal chords. Also pay close attention to the back of your mouth, specifically your tongue. Try to whisper without making the back of your mouth smaller.

It is so interesting that you communicate without using your vocal chords. What is also really interesting to experience is whispering in unison with a crowd. It has a soft powerful quality. I find that there are things that are flashy but have little power. There are things that less noticeable but have deep and strong power reserves. There are also things that seem powerful and are, and those that seem weak and are.

One illustration of this is motors. Some motors can spin fast but have no torque. These can be stopped before they get spinning from little more than a hand grab. Other motors don’t spin very quickly but nothing will stop them. They have incredible torque.

The large group whispering in unison was like a quiet engine with a lot of torque. Or it was like a smooth river that could sweep away a house.
