(5) When an elderly person or our Guru, is sitting beside us,
it is inappropriate to sit with legs stretched long, speak in
a loud voice, scream and argue in their presence.

Also, if someone asks us something, it is our duty to not
answer and say, “Ask the elderly person. It is the elderly
person’s subject.” “Whatever they say is right.” If sometimes
the elderly people, our Guru, etc. do something and then
inform us or sometimes ask our opinion, it is our duty to
reply that, ‘O respected one, you do not need to ask me
in this matter. You have the right to do whatever you feel
appropriate.”
