avidyāyām antare vartamānam

dṛṣṭvā punas taṁ saghṛṇaḥ kubuddhiṁ

prayojayed utpathagaṁ yathāndham

What merciful, intelligent, wise person, seeing a foolish person in the hole of ignorance, will direct him along the same path, as if guiding a blind man on the wrong path?

Seeing such a person’s foolishness, should one encourage him? Not at all. Who will tell a blind man going on the wrong path to continue on that path? No one will tell him.

|| 5.5.18 ||

gurur na sa syāt sva-jano na sa syāt

pitā na sa syāj jananī na sā syāt

daivaṁ na tat syān na patiś ca sa syān

na mocayed yaḥ samupeta-mṛtyum

He who cannot deliver a person in saṁsāra is not a guru, a relative, a father, mother, devatā or husband.

If one acknowledges the teacher of bhakti, this implies that others are not to be considered teachers or friends. Consequently they should be rejected. He who cannot free a person who is on the path of saṁsāra (samupeta-mṛtum) by giving teachings about bhakti is not a guru or friend. Thus Bali should give up Śukrācārya as his guru. He does not incur sinful reaction if he does not offer obeisance and respects. Similarly Vibhīṣaṇa can reject his relative Rāvaṇa. Prahlāda can reject his father Hiraṇyakaśipu. Bharata can reject his mother Kaikeyī. Khaṭvāṅga can reject the devatā Indra. The wives of the brāhmaṇas can reject their husbands learned in sacrifice. Another meaning is as follows. Syāt is in the potential form. He who cannot deliver another person should not take the position of guru. He should not accept respect and reverence. If he does, he incurs sin. If he cannot deliver the person, he should not accept the person as a disciple just so that he becomes a guru. He should not accept friendship so that he becomes a friend. He should not produce children to become a father, or bear a child to become a mother. One should not accept worship to become a devatā. One should not accept a wife in marriage to become a husband.
