Bhagavad-gita As It Is

BG Chapters 1 - 6

It would be better to live in this world by begging than to live at the cost of the lives of great souls who are my teachers.
BG 2.5, Translation and Purport:

It would be better to live in this world by begging than to live at the cost of the lives of great souls who are my teachers. Even though desiring worldly gain, they are superiors. If they are killed, everything we enjoy will be tainted with blood.

According to scriptural codes, a teacher who engages in an abominable action and has lost his sense of discrimination is fit to be abandoned.
