No literature or written records directly attributable to the school survived. The existing records describing the activities and thoughts of the school are of Buddhist or Jainist origin. Such religious scriptures as the Chinese Agama Sutra, the Pali Samannaphala Sutta, and the Jainist “blessing sutra” contain some inconsistent information about the school. Certain thoughts of the school were even contradictorily, classified in these scriptures.
