Sengliang comments: Next is the answer to: 'How is the expounder of Dharma like the waxing crescent moon at the start of the month?' First he spoke of impermanence, and later he spoke of permanence; this resembles deceiving people and lacking compassion for sentient beings, not having the meaning of a parent and being overtly incorrect. Therefore, the simile of parents instructing an infant is used.
