“A man is not called wise because he talks and talks again; but if he is peaceful, loving and fearless then he is in truth called wise.” - Gautama Buddha

Decryption of quote

"A man is not called wise because he talks and talks again; but if he is peaceful, loving and fearless then he is in truth called wise."

These words remind us that true wisdom is not measured by the volume of words that come out of our mouths, but by the depth of our character and the way we conduct ourselves in the world.

Wisdom is not about being the loudest voice in the room or constantly seeking attention through endless chatter. It is about embodying qualities such as peace, love, and fearlessness that speak volumes without uttering a single word.

When we are peaceful, we are able to navigate life's challenges with grace and composure, showing a strength that goes beyond mere words.

When we are loving, we are able to connect with others on a deeper level, fostering understanding and compassion that transcends any language barrier.

And when we are fearless, we are able to face our fears head-on, showing courage and resilience that inspire others to do the same.

True wisdom lies in the ability to embody these qualities and live them out in our daily lives, rather than simply talking about them.

So let us strive to be not just wise in words, but wise in actions, embodying peace, love, and fearlessness in all that we do.

For it is in living out these qualities that we truly become wise in the eyes of others and, more importantly, in our own hearts.
