'And as thereupon some one might loose his bandage and say to him, "Go in that direction, it is Gandhâra, go in that direction;" and as thereupon, having been informed and being able to judge for himself, he would by asking his way from village to village arrive at last at Gandhâra,—in exactly the same manner does a man, who meets with a teacher to inform him, obtain the true knowledge. For him there is only delay so long as he is not delivered (from the body); then he will be perfect.

In plain words: If someone removes the blindfold and points the way, the man can ask from village to village and finally get home. In the same way, a person who finds a teacher gains true knowledge. He only has to wait until this body ends, and then he is complete.
