Study of the text - When a Sadhu answers a question, he should not cover up the answer from the scriptures, nor hide it, nor interpret the scriptures based on an incorrect principle. He should not be proud, thinking of himself as a great scholar and ascetic. He should not boast about his virtues. If the listener does not understand the meaning he has explained, he should not ridicule him, and a Sadhu should not give blessings to anyone.
Commentary - Since the questioner may sometimes ask a question in a different way, the sutrakar prohibits this by saying - "Sa" - the questioner, being the refuge of all meanings, is like a casket of jewels, or like a market where all the goods of the three worlds are available, or he is an extraordinary scholar who knows everything, or he is one of the fourteen previous houses, or he is a brilliant scholar, knowledgeable in the meaning of things, due to some reason, even if he is angry with the listener, he should not cover up the meaning of the sutra, he should not explain it otherwise, nor should he speak ill of his teacher. While explaining the Dharma, he should not cover up the meaning of others' virtues, nor should he taint them, nor should he ridicule them, nor should he explain the meaning of the scriptures based on an incorrect principle. He should not be proud, thinking of himself as a knower of all scriptures, known to all, the destroyer of all doubts, there is no one like me who can explain the meaning of things with logic and reasoning. He should not boast about his vast knowledge and asceticism. The word "cha" indicates that he should avoid other forms of prestige, respect, and honor. A wise and learned Sadhu should not make jokes or fun. If for some reason the listener does not understand something, he should not ridicule him. He should not give blessings like "May you have many sons, may you have much wealth, may you have much virtue, may you live long". He should be consistent with his language and meaning.
Shadow - Being disgusted by the fear of ghosts, he should not perform the ritual of naming a child.
Human beings should not desire anything in the world, they should not speak of evil deeds.
