AN.10.179. Ariyadhammasutta ("The Teaching of the Noble Ones")

Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")

“Mendicants, I will teach you the teaching of the noble ones, and what is not the teaching of the noble ones. Listen and pay close attention, I will speak. … And what is not the teaching of the noble ones? Killing living creatures … wrong view. This is called what is not the teaching of the noble ones.

And what is the teaching of the noble ones? Not killing living creatures … right view. This is called the teaching of the noble ones.”
