Lion's Roar said: "Oh World Honored One! How does the Bodhisattva know when is the right time or not? "
"Oh good man! The Bodhisattva-Mahasattva can acquire great arrogance when he becomes blessed with happiness, arrogance from delivering a sermon, or arrogance from effort, or arrogance in discussing of understanding of a [particular] meaning, or arrogance from befriending an evil friend, or arrogance from giving (donations) which he estimates much, or arrogance from (have) good things and virtues of worldly nature, or arrogance from being respected by the nobility of worldly life. Such is not the right time to wisdom. He should then practice meditation well. "
Nirvana Sutra, Chapter 38, on Bodhisattva Lion's Roar 6.
