2. Ariyavamsa.—A celebrated teacher and author of the fifteenth century. He came from Pagan and was a member of the Chapaṭa sect. He was a pupil of the famous Ye-din (" water-carrier ") of Sagaing,¹ and with great zeal and enthusiasm learnt the Abhidhammattha-vibhāvanī from his teacher. Later, Ariyavamsa wrote a commentary on this work and called it the Maṇisāramañjūsā. A charming anecdote is related of how he read the work to his colleagues and readily accepted their corrections with gratitude.
