Sabbe sankhara anicca.
Sabbe sankhara dukkha.
Sabbe dhamma anatta.

Compare the view to the four noble truths and apply the eightfold path when upholding that view.
This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

"Others will misconstrue reality due to their personal perspectives, doggedly holding onto and not easily discarding them; We shall not misconstrue reality due to our own personal perspectives, nor doggedly holding onto them, but will discard them easily. This effacement shall be done."

My understanding is that we should cultivate Right View (
Samma Ditthi) Seen things as they are.
This is to be done by practice and concentration. I found it was very dificult to practice non attachment. So I started practicing non anger (Metta). It did not cost me anything!
