Shall we see deservingness in knowledge propogation?

[2016-01-10, Shri Anil asked: 9) For donating food and knowledge, deservingness shall be seen. Krishna taught Gita only to Arjuna who was deserving. Regarding Your knowledge propagation, whether such discrimination is needed?]

Swami replied:- Whether God preaches spiritual knowledge to a devotee or a devotee propagates the spiritual knowledge in the world, deservingness of the receiver is essential. An undeserving receiver will reject your knowledge. You must also modify the knowledge according to the suitability of receiver. This suitability is deservedness. In the four criteria (Anubandhachatushtaya) for preaching the spiritual knowledge, the first is deservedness of the receiver (Adhikari). The second is the context in which receiver exists (Sandarbha). The third is the modified knowledge to be presented according to the deservingness of the receiver (Vishaya). The fourth is the immediate benefit that attracts the receiver to practice such knowledge (Prayojana). If you teach the knowledge without looking at the suitability, which is the capacity of the receiver in receiving a concept, it will be rejected by the receiver and your effort results in wastage of energy and time. A preliminary study of the psychology of the student is essential for the teacher in the field of teaching. Similarly, while serving food to a poor man, you must see the primary deservingness, which is the hunger. If there is no hunger, he will also reject the food or sometimes sells the food to get money for vices.
