    QUOTABLE QUOTES FROM VALMIKI RAMAYANA
    गुरोरप्यवलिप्तस्य कार्याकार्यमजानतः ।
    उत्पथं प्रतिपन्नस्य कार्यं भवति शासनम्॥।


    Gurorapy avaliptasya kaaryaakaaryam ajaanatah
    Utpathham pratipannasya kaaryam bhavati shaasanam
    2.11.13


    One who is haughty, who does not know whether what he does is right or wrong and who has taken to the wrong path is to be disciplined even if he is guru, parent or an elder in age or learning.


    [Context: These are words addressed to Rama by Lakshamana who is angry at the turn of events with Rama preparing himself to live 14 years in the forests because of the boon granted by Dasaratha to Kaikeyi. By the word 'guru' Lakshmana, by implication, is referring to Dasaratha in this context. ]
