Being indolent and lacking clear understanding is prohibited by this precept. When it says 'this is self-deception as well as deceiving others', \[it means that\] one creates future downfalls for oneself and suffers great deterioration, hence it is called 'self-deception'; conferring false teachings causing futile toil and suffering without benefit, hence it is called 'deceiving others'. The Bodhisattvabhūmi says: 'Falsely displaying deportment is subsumed under a bodhisattva's counterfeit virtues.' Although this is lying, it constitutes acting falsely as a teacher, and thus incurs a duṣkṛta offense. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.135](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.135) - [Next: 2.137](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.137) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815~en-mt.2.136) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.136](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1815.2.136) · Pramāṇa
