[1][pts] At Sāvatthī.

"Bhikkhus, I will teach you wrongness and rightness.

Listen to that....

"And what, bhikkhus, is wrongness?

It is: wrong view ... wrong concentration.

This is called wrongness.

"And what, bhikkhus, is rightness?

It is: right view ... right concentration.

This is called rightness."
