c5.s2.t13.26

In these and on a few other points of difference noticed in the work of Vasumitra and the *Kathāvatthu*, there is very little to distinguish them as distinctly Mahāyānic. In the *Mahāvastu*¹⁰ also, the discourses on the Truths¹¹ or the Causal I, p. 270. Throughout *Mtu.* one notices that Nirvāṇa was conceived as sukha (kṣeme sthale śame śive nirvāṇe, *Mtu.*, I, p. 34). The Mahāyānists will have nothing to do with duḥkha or sukha.
