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
