“Mendicants, I will teach you the wrong practice and the right practice. Listen and apply your mind well, I will speak.”
“Yes, sir,” they replied. The Buddha said this:
2 “And what’s the wrong practice? Ignorance is a requirement for choices.
Choices are a requirement for consciousness. … That is how this entire mass of suffering originates. This is called the wrong practice.
3 And what’s the right practice? When ignorance fades away and ceases with no residue left behind, choices cease. When choices cease, consciousness ceases. … That is how this entire mass of suffering ceases. This is called the right practice.”
