are too many intellectuals in the world
They have studied extensively and know everything
But they know their own true nature not
walk away and, so far from the path
How thoroughly this also explain the reality
What good are they all the empty formulas, then?
If you remember a single time your self-being,
then going on to you the insight to a Buddha.
Hanshan "Poem on the Cold Mountain", from "Zen" by Stephan Schuhmacher
From: Zen of bassui
