However, although the diverse attachments of non-Buddhists are many, they do not go beyond evil views and the two kinds of causes: causelessness and erroneous causation. Regarding 'evil views', it refers to inverted deductions concerning the truths; their nature is defiled discernment, they can obstruct right view, and their karmic function is to invite suffering, because those with evil views experience much suffering. The activity of these views is divided into five: First, the view of self-identity (satkāyadṛṣṭi), which refers to clinging to self and what belongs to self in the five clinging aggregates, its function serving as the basis for all points of view. Second, extreme views (antagrāhadṛṣṭi), which refers to clings to annihilation or permanence regarding them, its function being to obstruct the middle practice and liberation. Third, wrong views (mithyādṛṣṭi), which refers to slandering the actual reality of causes, effects, and functions, as well as all other false doctrines that are not the other four views, just as the term 'predominant condition' (adhipati-pratyaya) is universally applicable in meaning. Fourth, the view of attachment to views (dṛṣṭiparāmarśa), which refers to clinging to various views and the aggregates on which they rely as supreme and capable of attaining purity, its function serving as the basis for all disputes. Fifth, the view of attachment to precepts and ascetic vows (śīlavrataparāmarśa), which refers to clinging to precepts and vows that conform to various views and the aggregates on which they rely as supreme and capable of attaining purity, its function serving as the basis for useless, painful toil. The meaning of the two kinds of causes will be explained below.
