This knowledge is for you, and it should never be imparted to one who does not observe austerities; to one who has no devotion; to one who has no desire to listen; and to one who is indignant towards Me.
Speak not this to one who has not practised austerities, or to him who does not love, or who will not listen, or who mocks.
Never should this be told by you to one who is not austere, who is not a devotee, nor to one who has no wish to listen, nor certainly to him who traduces Me.
This (that I have taught) you should not ever be taught to one who is devoid of austerities and to one who is not a devotee; also, neither to one who does not render service, nor as well to one who cavils at Me.
This is never to be spoken by thee to one who is devoid of austerities, to one who is not devoted, nor to one who does not render service, nor who does not desire to listen, nor to one who cavils at Me.
