Through following these teachers pollution
arises everywhere; they say there is no distinction
of caste within Brahma. They say to
that which is holy, “Away with this pollution”:
things which are unmentionable they call spiritual.
They offer their advice to tanners and musicians, to
the twelve village servants, to women and children.
Soothsayers are pupils of theirs; they bring disgrace on their own faith. They perform unlawful
sacrifices, they eat together; they say this leads
not to sin but to liberation. They give a free rein
to the senses; they set aside restrictions and
penalties. They care for no authority of the
scriptures, they consider not who is fit, who unfit;
they take money for their instructions. Such
teachers and such pupils, I swear by Vitthoba,
says Tuka, do undoubtedly go down to hell.
