Hesychia: Sacred Stillness

T



"When a spider weaves it web, it sits perfectly still and waits for its prey to come and get caught in its web. It's able to discern when the prey has gotten caught in the web because the web moves. If the spider is agitated and moving, it cannot tell when the web is disturbed because the spider itself is moving the web. Only when the spider sits perfectly still can it discern any stirring of the web. Only then can the spider be nourished."
