Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi - Two Kinds of Intelligence
Work rating: Medium

	There are two kinds of intelligence: one acquired,
	as a child in school memorizes facts and concepts
	from books and from what the teacher says,
	collecting information from the traditional sciences
	as well as from the new sciences.


	With such intelligence you rise in the world.
	You get ranked ahead or behind others
	in regard to your competence in retaining
	information. You stroll with this intelligence
	in and out of fields of knowledge, getting always more
	marks on your preserving tablets.


	There is another kind of tablet, one
	already completed and preserved inside you.
	A spring overflowing its springbox. A freshness
	in the center of the chest. This other intelligence
	does not turn yellow or stagnate. It`s fluid,
	and it doesn`t move from outside to inside
	through conduits of plumbing-learning.


	This second knowing is a fountainhead
	from within you, moving out.
