Distinguish between those....

 
 
Distinguish between those who understand and those who agree.
 
He who understands the Teaching will not tarry in applying it to life;
 
He who agrees will nod and extol the Teaching as remarkable wisdom,
 
but will not apply this wisdom to his life.
 
There are many who have agreed, but they are like a withered forest,
 
fruitless and without shade. Only decay awaits them.
 
Those who understand are few,
 
but like a sponge they absorb the precious knowledge and are ready
 
to cleanse the horrors of the world with the precious liquid.
 

Buddha
