Study is not the goal, doing is.Do not mistake “talk” for “action”Pity fills no stomach.Compassion builds no house.Understanding is not yet justiceWhoever multiplies words causes confusion.The truth that can be spokenis not the Ultimate Truth.Ultimate Truth is wordless,the silence within the silence.More than the absence of speech,More than the absence of words,Ultimate Truth is the seamless being-in-placethat comes with attending to Reality.Shimon ben Gamliel, Pirke Avot, Talmud, I:17 (roughly 30 CE)
