The author of Avassayanijjutti has remembered preceptor Vaira with reverence.⁶ Till the time of Vaira the four anuyogas were inseparate. It was preceptor Rakkhiya(1) who separated them.⁷ Vaira is said to have included the pamcamamgalas in the original scriptural texts after rejuvenating the niryukti, bhasya and curni commentaries.⁸ Rakkhia had studied somewhat more than nine Puvvas under Vaira.⁹
