Vasumitra puts the appearance of sub-sects of this group a little differently. According to him Sarvāstivāda first branched off from the Sthaviravāda, and from the former appeared the Mahīśāsakas, Kāśyapīya and Saṃkrāntivādins one after another at the intervals of a century. Out of the Mahīśāsakas developed only the Dharmaguptakas.
