¹ The story of the Vajjiputtaka heresy is given in the twelfth chapter of the Cullavagga (Vin. ii. 294 ff.); the Mhv. (iv. 9 ff.) gives more details in certain respects; see also Dpv. iv. 48 ff.; v. 17 ff.; 32 ff. It is noteworthy that even during the Buddha’s life five hundred monks, described as Vajjiputtakā, seceded from the Order and joined Devadatta though they were later brought back by Sāriputta and Moggallāna (Vin. ii. 199 f.). Buddhaghosa actually (Sp. i. 228) identifies the heretics as belonging to the same party. For the part played by Yasa Thera see Yasa (2).
