The silence between the notes is as important as the notes themselves.
“Silence is not the absence of something but the presence of everything.”23
Jenny Odell • How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy

Anthony De Mello • The Song of the Bird
Nothing is more important in niggun-practice than savoring the silence after the melody stops.
