From this standpoint, the person ought to seek guidance, and at the same time, ought to be watchful”. He should ensure that his conscience is at peace with all the guidance he receives. And the father or guide should not be content with giving directions only, but also should convince and give proof of the teaching, through Scriptural verses or stories and sayings of the saints.
