Silence is most strident form of protest; just ignore tormentors

While watching the chat of ONV Kurup and M.T.Vasudevan Nair in a television channel the other day, I was stricken stark by the revelation that the form of protest that is most strident is silence.

Mind you, those who oppressed you the most would be hit hard if you don’t protest by outward gestures in any way. Just ignore them, however high and mighty they are. They would become puny figures in front of your silence, doing nothing about their taunts and machinations. They would become ordinary mortals in front of your higher moral ground through silence.

Jesus Christ remained silent in front of earthly accusers and the judge and jury. He said his kingdom is a different one.

Like that, your tormentors, those who want to do injustice to you for no fault of yours, maybe to please some pygmies, would lie shattered in the higher scheme of things in this world itself, not to speak of the other world.

I had occasion to interact with the noblest of souls in media and the silliest of them whom I simply ignored and dumped them in the thrash basket of my soul.
