² Masuda, *op. cit.*, I, pp. 18, 19; *Kvu.*, xi, 5: The Mahāsānghikas cite the passage of the *Mahāparinibbāna Sutta*, in which Buddha said to Ānanda that he could live many kalpas if he had wished so. The Theravādins without refuting this statement cite another passage which goes against this view.
