In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
An offshoot of the Vajjiputtaka heretics (Mhv.v.7; Dpv.v.46).
Their doctrines resembled those of the Dhammuttariyas; in birth is ignorance and in the arresting of birth is the arresting of ignorance (Rockhill, op. cit., 194).
They also held the view that the corruptions were put away by slices. Mrs. Rhys Davids, Points of Controversy, p. 130.
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
