ABSTRACT
O Manjusri, a Highly Perfected Bodhisattva should also not talk of the Dharma with others whilst displaying an appearance designed to arouse passionate thoughts in them nor take pleasure in looking upon them. When he enters the home of another, he does not seek to encourage any child, young person or widowed one, for instance, to become over familiar with him nor does he seek or encourage familiarity with any who may be equally vulnerable to some form of seduction. To those who raise objections or ask difficult questions, do not answer from the Teachings of the Lesser Vehicle but lucidly explain matters simply from Those of the Greater Vehicle that they may obtain all sorts of understanding.” If there is any objection or difficult question, he responds to it according to its meaning, elaborating and making distinctions through apt illustrations and parables.
