Elsewhere³ they are spoken of as children of a childless mother. They extol themselves and disparage others and yet they have produced only three shining lights: Nanda Vaccha, Kisa Saṅkicca and Makkhali Gosāla. A fourth leader, Paṇḍuputta, of wagon-building stock, is mentioned in the \*Anaṅgaṇa Sutta\*⁴; there is also the well-known Upaka (\*q.v.\*). - [Previous: v1.c7.92](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c7.92) - [Next: v1.c7.94](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c7.94) - [Up: v1.c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c7.93](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c7.93) · Pramāṇa
