And what’s the wrong practice? Katamā ca, bhikkhave, micchāpaṭipatti? It is wrong view, wrong thought, wrong speech, wrong action, wrong livelihood, wrong effort, wrong mindfulness, and wrong immersion. Seyyathidaṁ—micchādiṭṭhi …pe… micchāsamādhi. This is called the wrong practice. Ayaṁ vuccati, bhikkhave, micchāpaṭipatti.
