Visuddhimagga XXII-58

Parāmāsoti tassa tassa dhammassa sabhāvaṃ atikkamma parato abhūtaṃ sabhāvaṃ āmasanākārena pavattanato micchādiṭṭhiyā etaṃ adhivacanaṃ.

「执取」──因为这是从超出了自性以及执着其它的不实的自性之相而起，故与邪见之语同义。

Ñ(XXII,58): Adherence (misapprehension—parāmāsa) is a term for wrong view, because it occurs in the aspect of missing the individual essence of a given state (dhamma) and apprehending (āmasana) elsewise (parato) an unactual individual essence.
