CANDRAVEDHYAKA PRAKĪRŅAKA : 11
19.
The one, who is neglecting the teachings and not acknowledging the virtues of the masters and who, under the influence of falsēbelief, desires the worldly pleasures is a saint-killer.
20.
The masters capable of imparting the complete knowledge are, certainly, not easy to find and to find disciples who are simple hearted and capable of learning are not easy to find either.
21.
Thus, I have, briefly, narrated these characteristics of humility. Now intently listen to the qualities of the masters from me.
MASTERS' QUALITIESS : THE SECOND DOOR
22.
Now, I shall narrate the qualities of the masters who are the holders of millions of virtues, preachers of the path of right conduct and who know the right meaning of the scriptures containing the canonical gems.
The masters, who are all tolerating like the earth, stable and firm in the faith like the mountain, endowed with cool brilliance like that of the moon, are praised by one and all.
