The aim of this study is to clarify the current intellectual situation within the framework of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s thoughts. The intellectual atmosphere of today is dominated by the magic of words and the act of thinking that imitates the thinking itself. One of the important indications of this situation is the “walls of incomprehensibility”, which in the Spinozian sense correspond to the arrogance of the intellectual effort. The study emphasizes silence within the framework of its dialogue with Wittgenstein in the face of this “noisy” atmosphere in which intellectual effort falls. Silence is the threshold of the passivity of the noisy atmosphere in which the intellectual effort falls, and it is the beginning of the effort to comprehend the present effectively. With this situation, thinking will get rid of the fascinating repetition of memorized sentences and will turn into activity by being translated from the ease of being a doctrine.
