Empty & Full

Posted on January 10, 2017 by Tashi Nyima

imagesLearn this from the river’s flow

in mountain cleft and chasm:

the rivulets gush loudly,

the great stream moves silently.

 

Empty things boom loud.

The full are ever quiet.

The fool is like an empty pot;

the sage is full.

—Buddha Shakyamuni
