न बुद्धिभेदं जनयेदज्ञानां कर्मसङ्गिनाम्। जोषयेत्सर्वकर्माणि विद्वान्युक्तः समाचरन्॥
na buddhi-bhedam janayed ajnanam karma-sanginam joshayet sarva-karmani vidvan yuktah samacharan
Translation
The wise should not unsettle the minds of the ignorant who are attached to action. Rather, performing all actions with devotion, the wise should inspire others to do the same.
Commentary
A wise teacher does not confuse people by preaching renunciation to those who are not ready. Instead, they lead by example, performing all duties with devotion, gradually inspiring others toward higher understanding.
