Meditate

Seven, Wisdom Quarterly
Monastics in Thailand under the Buddha entering nirvana (Dharma Quotes/Flickr.com)
  
What does it avail a person to know everything yet practice nothing? Meditate. 
  
A thousand useless lines could never match a single word leading to peace, serenity, and insight. Meditate.
  
When all we will have done is done, what will we have done? Meditate. 
  
There is that which -- visible here and now with an unclouded mind, liberates the heart. Meditate. But clouded we wander:
  
All asking,
none knowing. 
All talking,
none showing.
All searching,
none finding --
Traveling roads
that go on winding. 
  
Meditate.
