Ariyavamsa spent only a part of his life at Sagaing and afterwards taught at Ava, where the king was sometimes among his listeners. He was among the first of Burmese litterateurs to write a metaphysical work in the vernacular—an Aṇuṭīkā on the Abhidhamma.² The Gandha-Vamsa³ attributes to him another work, the Mahānissara (Mahānissaya ?), but no mention is made of it in the Sāsanavamsa.
