Question
Two answers required. In some versions, a split into these two groups occurred after an abbott tore up a precious overcoat and angered Shivabhūti, who then swore to wander naked. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name these two groups. Bhadrabāhu led what became one of these groups away from Maghada and returned to find the other as ascetics wearing clothing.
ANSWER: Svetāmbara AND Digambara sects [accept white-clad in place of “Svetambara”; accept sky-clad in place of “Digambara”]
[10e] Shvetāmbara disagrees with the Digambara belief that women must be reborn to achieve moksha, a concept similar to this Buddhist idea of being free from the cycle of rebirth.
ANSWER: nirvāṇa [accept nibbana or nibbāna]
[10h] Digambara holds that these texts compiled by the Gaṇadharas are lost, rejecting the angas accepted in Shvetāmbara. These compilations of Mahavira’s teachings share their name with Hindu texts divided into Shaiva, Vaishnava, and Shakta branches.
ANSWER: agamas [accept agams or agam literature; reject “purvas”]
