But surely — should not even he be forsaken if he does not teach, or teaches wrongly? Not at all, we say. For by reason of his very fullness of knowledge there is in him the absence of passion and the like; thus his not-teaching and so forth must be due to some cause residing solely in the disciple — such as unworthiness, lack of confidence, and the like. Therefore the disciple should make effort in serving him, not in forsaking him.
