Intelligence & Wisdom
Trust the intelligence of the body
Over the intelligence of the mind.
The master learns more
In a mile of walking
Than an hour of reading.
Foster wisdom of the intellect
With study and discourse.
Foster wisdom of the body
With nourishment and exercise.
Still deeper is the universal intelligence
To foster its wisdom
Quiet the mind
Let go the body
And in that openness hear
The wisdom of the ancients
Some call this wisdom God
Others call it The Dao
I call it by no name
Content to bathe in the darkness of its light
Inviting it to call me
