However,
historically the Omniscient Buddha in the past, the number increased

parts:
- Part One: Church World

- Part Two: He preached
Anapatimokkha, which means you approve the precepts for monks to worship

Today Theravada Buddhist
Sangha Theravada still preserve this tradition for Discipline is the foundation
of Buddhism, Dhamma Vinaya is also longer. In three classic organ, the Buddha declared
that over time, the Vinaya will ultimately perish. When Vinaya then there is
annihilation of dark age, is the starting point of all terms of a Buddha Dhamma
Enlightenment.
Concurrently with the
above definition, the fifteenth day of January longer Economics Mahaparinirvana

Because, when he
Venerable Ānanda was Mara harassment, should not know what the Buddha.
Although the
Buddha taught so the second, third, Venerable Ānanda still do not understand;
