Mani, Meher Baba's sister, shared some of her thoughts in an informal talk on this subject in Mandali Hall at Meherazad. She said:
"There should be no question in the minds of anyone [Baba lovers], whether we should observe silence or not. It is an opportunity that we should not let pass by! Every lover of Baba, to my mind, should observe silence on the 10th of July — Silence Day. You salute your Beloved Baba by giving Him a rose; you would not call that a routine or ritual. It is an expression of your love, a piece of your heart . . . Baba has observed silence for all — for each one of us — and if we cannot give that little response for one day — if we cannot keep our lips closed for one day of the year — then that’s too bad. I don’t feel that by keeping silence we are going to help the world or anything like that. That is not why we are doing it. It’s just a salute, in homage to His Love for us; an expression of our love for Him. Beloved Baba observed silence for all these years, and for one day He has “said” we can share it with Him too. How blessed we are!’

瑪妮，巴巴的妹妹，在美拉扎德的滿德里大廳，非正式地談到這個主題時，分享了她的想法。她說：

無論我們是否應該保持或不保持沉默，在任何一個人（巴巴愛者）的心里，都應該沒有任何問題。它是一個我們不應該錯過的機會！在我看來，每一個巴巴愛者，都應該在7月10日——沉默日中保持沉默。你向你心愛的巴巴致敬，給他一朵玫瑰；你不會把它稱為例行公事或儀式。它是你愛的表達，是你的一片心意。巴巴對我們所有——我們每個人——都保持沉默，如果我們不能用一天的時間做出這樣的回應——如果我們不能在一年中的一天閉上嘴——那就太糟糕了。我不覺得通過保持沉默我們將會幫助世界或者類似的任何事情。這不是我們做這件事的原因。這僅僅是對他對我們的愛的致敬，是我們對他的愛的一個表達。至愛的巴巴多年來一直保持沉默，有一天他'說'我們也可以和他分享。我們是多受祝福啊!”
