[1] THUS have I heard.
On a certain occasion the Exalted One was staying near Sāvatthī.
Then the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:
"Brethren."
"Yes, lord," replied those brethren to the Exalted One.
The Exalted One said:
"Through an element it is, brethren,
that beings flow together,
meet together.

they of wrong mindfulness with them of wrong mindfulness,
they of wrong concentration with them of wrong concentration,
