[23][pts][olds] "Monks, these two slander the Tathāgata.

Which two?

He who explains what was not said or spoken by the Tathāgata
as said or spoken by the Tathāgata.
And he who explains what was said or spoken by the Tathāgata
as not said or spoken by the Tathāgata.

These are two who slander the Tathāgata."
