The document discusses how empty vessels make more sound than full vessels when struck, analogous to how empty-headed people talk more but with less substance compared to those who talk less but with more meaning behind their words. It suggests those who talk continuously for hours on end without much thought are likely devoid of real action and should not be taken seriously, whereas people who are more measured in their speech should be listened to carefully as their words contain sense and they can be relied upon to follow through on what they say.

Vessels which are empty make a loud sound when struck with something. But filled vessels make less sound. This is true in the case of people also. Some people are very talkative and go on speaking continuously. But others may be serous and talk less. Those people who go on taking for hours together need not be taken seriously. They are most probably empty- heated people with no sense in their talk. They do not give much thought to what they are talking. Such people are devoid of action also. They are most probably empty-headed people with no sense in their talk. They do not give much thought to what they are talking. Such people are devoid of action also. They usually boast that they will do this and that. But those people who talk less are different. Every word they speak is actually meant and hence to be taken seriously. Such people put forth a lot of sense into their talk. These kinds of people are usually clever and are capable of performing everything they say. They would not say anything if they dont mean it. They believe more in action than in words. They are like filled vessels which make less noise.
