ABSTRACT

"The advantage is to the good."—This the Master told while at the Bambu-grove near Rajagaha, about Devadatta. 1 For on one occasion, when Deva-datta asked for the Five Rules, 2 and could not get what he wanted, he made a schism in the Order, and taking four hundred of the mendicants with him, went and dwelt at the rock called Gaya-sisa.
