Passage: Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. Silence is the underlying power of human beings that makes them more alive to existential realities and more responsive to their duties in pursuit of their goals. The power of silence is most discernible when you are far from the madding crowd—into the bucolic expanses, the expanse of the ocean or the great heights of the Himalayas. Your mind with its fleeting thoughts tends to slow down, your intellect functions better, thereby refining your thinking process and improving your decision-making capability. When you are reading, silent surroundings enable you to understand and absorb better. Silence aids in your focus and concentration. So it is with writing. Truly, the power of silence unfolds the inner treasures of our conscious mind, the subconscious and the intellect. It gives us a better understanding of our own self and our surroundings, our relationship with other living beings and also with the supreme creator, God. Silence is the watchword for stability, equilibrium and harmony. The great forces of nature are perfectly balanced by the creator in a miraculous system of motion. The power of silence holds everything in a dynamic equilibrium. Question: From the options given below, select the most appropriate title for the passage.
