तर सचित्र उत्तराध्ययन सूत्र

Seeking of disciples is also incorporated in negligence. For service, ease and comfort of his own body, it is not proper for adept to take a person as his disciple. Though adept needs a helper, he may be his companion sage and disciple too. But it is necessary for the helper that he should be expert in religion and religious order and helpful in practices of religious rites.
