13. To put forth own viewpoint not clearly but deceitfully, too, amounts to promoting falsehood because it is deception – the third passion. Also, to act correctly not for self-emancipation
but for the satisfaction of others or fear of the public opinion is not right-faith but a stage show. The monk who does such things is not an ascetic but an actor.
