Here is the English translation, preserving the Jain terms:
The Shri Sutrakritanga Sutra states, who is this person in the context of the Dharma discourse? What is he like? In which particular deity does he have faith? In which philosophy does he believe? Knowing his imminent brilliance and quick intellect, he speaks, gives instructions, and is capable of grasping, assimilating, and understanding substances, or is adept at expounding various principles, and with the word 'cha' he comprehends the intention of the listener, whose intellect is immersed in the supreme truth, whose heart is imbued with the sentiment of Dharma, such a Sadhu is excellent and praiseworthy due to these true qualities of speech, etc. However, the Sadhu who takes pride in these qualities that are the cause of his Nirjara (spiritual purification) - "I am the knower of the science of speech, I am the best orator, there is no other as talented as me, no one else is as proficient in the esoteric scriptures as I am, and I alone have an intellect that has delved deep into the investigation of the principles" - such a self-aggrandizing person, through his intellect, belittles and disrespects others. As if in an assembly, during the discourse on Dharma, this person, with his stammering, sluggish, and empty speech, like cotton placed in a pot, what business does he have here, one might say. In this way, he considers himself as arrogant and haughty. Therefore, it is said - the person who, having diligently learned some scriptures or subjects created by others, proudly thinks that the entire body of literature and all the scriptures are just this much, and no more, he is like the monk who exalts himself, or the one who is intoxicated by gains, who criticizes another person of inferior intellect.
