Re:silence during lunch/elementary school

No, but I do remember as a child folding my arms & going to sleep with my head down on the table top in class 50+ years ago. Usually such sessions were immediately after lunchbreak. Perhaps it was just an administrative ploy to quieten us down after playtime. However, I think on reflection that it was an opportunity for students to learn to be silent & mindful as yogic masters teach even today. Ezra Pound at his last interview said, "silence has captured me."
