[562] **"And having formulated reasoning with regard to views (diṭṭhi), they speak of two things: 'true' and 'false'"** — having reasoned out reasoning (takka), having thought out thought (vitakka), having intended intention (saṅkappa), they generate, engender, produce, and bring forth views (diṭṭhigata); and having generated, engendered, produced, and brought forth views, they said thus, they speak thus, they utter thus, they explain thus, they express thus: "Mine is true; yours is false." Hence, "having formulated reasoning with regard to views, they speak of two things: 'true' and 'false.'" Therefore the Blessed One said: Truths that are many and various there are not, permanent in the world, apart from perception; but having formulated reasoning with regard to views, they speak of two things: "true" and "false."
