they sought Soreyya-Revata, and together they consulted Sabbakāmi at Vālikārāma. In the Council that followed the Ten Points were declared invalid, and this decision was conveyed to the monks. Soon after was held a recital of the Doctrine in which seven hundred monks took part under the leadership of Soreyya-Revata. The recital lasted eight months. The Vajjiputtakas refused to accept the finding of Revataā€™s Council and formed a separate sect, the Mahāsanghikas, numbering ten thousand monks, who held a recital of their own. Accordingly, Theravāda Buddhism suggests that Mahāsāį¹ƒghikas tried to change the traditional Vinaya by adding the above ten points to it.

Due to the increased royal support of the sangha, large numbers of faithless, greedy men espousing wrong views tried to join the order improperly and caused many divisions in the sangha. Because of this the third council of one thousand monks were convened, led by Moggaliputtatissa. The emperor himself was in attendance and asked the suspect monks what the Buddha taught. They claimed he taught wrong views such as eternalism, etc., which are condemned in the canonical 1699: 1317: 1836: 40: 6500: 6511: 2192: 3909: 3896: 621: 3886: 1071:). The king considered that were both the work of the Buddha, and since their preferences were not the same, should not live together. As those who studied the old Vinaya were in the majority, they were called the Mahāsāį¹ƒghika; those who studied the new were in the minority, but they were all Sthaviras; thus they were named Sthavira. 1026:
The orthodox monks refused to agree to these points, and one of their leaders, Yasa Kākandakaputta, publicly condemned the action of the Vajjiputtakas.
