The term is applied to actions, describing those that are negative in the sense either of being naturally wrong or of transgressing a formal rule or commitment, and is often translated as wrongdoing, unwholesome, etc. In some passages in this text the “objectionable” or “censurable” quality of actions is extended to any that are tainted with dualistic notions.
