Question
Why does one feel a sudden strangeness on counting to twelve and keeping quiet?

Answer

When one keeps quiet and stops all his selfish actions and takes a break from the monotonous routine, one gets time to introspect and analyse one’s actions. This brings a feeling of sudden strangeness because we never take a break from hectic activity and continuous talk.
