Here is a rule that is, I think, the soberest in this whole chapter, and it is worth stating. It says: as long as you have not arrived — live by the instruction of teacher and scripture. That is, all the preceding verses on habitlessness, unconsciousness, and mindlessness are referred to the one who has arrived; and the one who has not is told to do what is prescribed.
This detail removes the very abuse spoken of at Varāha (4.24) and Muktikā (2.19): a person who cites inward freedom to justify an action reveals that there is no freedom. Here the book limits itself; and this, I think, does it credit. Worth noting the two standards: guru and śāstra, teacher and scripture.
This pairing was examined at Varāha (4.31) and Śāṭyāyanī (3): a book without a teacher is interpreted however one likes, a teacher without a book degenerates into opinion; and hence both are required. The Vaishnava side adds a third — sādhu, «the honest», that is, a living tradition — and its rule requires that all three coincide. Add the word avyutpanna, «untrained», from vi-ut-pad: literally «not developed».
That is, one who does not know is called neither foolish nor sinful, but untrained; and this, I think, is the kindest word by which such a state can be named.
