Why Is God Silent When I Call?

I remember the nights I cried out to God.

Not in devotion.

In desperation.

“Where are You?”

“Why won’t You answer me?”

“Don’t You see I’m suffering?”

Silence.

I felt abandoned.

Unworthy.

Alone in a vast universe.

But something changed when I stopped trying to get a response—

and started listening to the Silence itself.

The Absence That Isn’t Empty

Many seekers reach a point where prayers go unanswered.

They’ve chanted mantras.

They’ve sat in stillness.

They’ve surrendered everything.

Yet… nothing comes.

No sign.

No voice.

No experience of the Divine.

It feels like spiritual betrayal.

But I ask you—

what if that Silence is the response?

What if God isn’t absent,

but simply not speaking in the language you expect?

God Speaks Without Words

The mind wants a reply.

A sign. A miracle. A mystical state.

But God does not shout.

God whispers beneath the noise of your expectations.

God appears

not as form or sound—

but as being itself.

As the Stillness that’s always here.

As the Presence that never left.

God doesn’t come to you—

because God never departed.

You only imagined you were two.

Suffering Is Also a Call

Sometimes, suffering intensifies

not because God has turned away,

but because your false self is beginning to break.

And that breaking… feels like silence.

It feels like absence.

But truly, it’s the cracking open

of the illusion of separation.

The personal “me” is dissolving.

And what remains is too vast,

too still,

too sacred for words.

In that vastness,

there is only God.

Let the Silence Burn You

When you stop filling the void with words,

you meet something deeper than answers.

You meet the Answerer.

That which sees.

That which waits without time.

That which is.

In that sacred inner temple,

Silence is not empty.

It is full—

with Presence,

with Knowing,

with Love that does not depend on form.

This is why the sages speak less.

Because in Silence,

nothing is missing.

You Are Not Separate From the One You Call

Here’s the Truth:

The one who is calling

and the One being called

are not two.

You’ve been shouting into the sky,

begging for God to show up.

But all the while,

it’s the Divine in you that has been longing.

Longing to remember Itself.

This longing is holy.

It’s sacred.

But eventually, longing gives way to realization:

I was never apart from God.

I only believed I was.

When the Seeker Dissolves

As long as you seek God like a separate being,

you will feel distance.

But when you allow the seeker to dissolve—

when you drop the idea of you calling out to another—

you find that what remains is God.

God is not coming.

God is being.

And so are you.

This recognition is not dramatic.

It’s subtle, quiet, often overlooked.

But once seen,

you will never again wonder

why God didn’t answer.

Because you'll know—

God was the one asking all along.

Love Doesn’t Need a Reply

You may still pray.

You may still cry out.

That’s beautiful.

But now, let it be an offering,

not a demand.

Let your longing become a river

that flows into the ocean of Love.

Let your prayer be Silence itself.

And in that Silence,

you will finally hear

what can never be spoken.
