2.16

First cultivate the teaching oneself,
and only then instruct others;
one may then make this statement:
"Follow what I practice."
If oneself acts unwholesomely,
how could one cause another to be wholesome?
If oneself has not attained tranquil cessation,
how could one cause another to be tranquil?
