Relatively prolonged intervals of silence can be used in rituals; in some religious disciplines, people maintain silence for protracted periods, or even for the rest of their lives, as an ascetic means of spiritual transformation. Rhetorical practice Silence may become an effective rheto ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
