[Footnote 43:  In the case of a monk having carnal connection with a nun the penalty was instant expulsion(ib. 60).  The nuns were subject to the monks and kept strictly in hand, obliged always to greet the monks first, to go to lessons once a fortnight, and so forth.]

[Footnote 44:  Mah[=a]sudassana, the great King of Glory whose city is described with its four gates, one of gold, one of silver, one of Jade and one of crystal, etc.  The earlier Buddha had as ‘king of glory’ 84,000 wives and other comforts quite as remarkable.]

     [Footnote 45:  Translated by Davids, Buddhist Suttas and
     Hibbert Lectures.]

[Footnote 46:  What we have several times had to call attention to is shown again by the side light of Buddhism to be the case in Brahmanic circles, namely, that even in Buddha’s day while Brahm[=a] is the god of the thinkers Indra is the god of the people (together with Vishnu and Civa, if the texts are as old as they pretend to be).]

     [Footnote 47:  Mah[=a]parinibb[=a]na iii, to which Rhys
     Davids refers, is scarcely a fair parallel.]

     [Footnote 48:  The imitation of the original play on words is
     Rhys Davids’, who has translated these Suttas in SBE. vol. 
     XI.  For the following see Fausboell, ib. vol.  X.]

[Footnote 49:  After one enters on the stream of holiness there are only seven more possible births on earth, with one in heaven; then he becomes arhat, venerable, perfected, and enters Nirv[=a]na.]

     [Footnote 50:  Compare the fairies and spirits in ib. v.
     10; and in i. 31, ‘give gifts to the gods.’]

[Footnote 51:  We agree with Rhys Davids, Buddhism, pp. 111, 207, that Buddha himself was an atheist; but to the statement that Nirv[=a]na was the “extinction of that sinful, grasping condition of mind and heart which would otherwise be the cause of renewed individual existences” should in our opinion be added “and therewith the extinction of individuality.”  Compare Rhys Davids’ Hibbert Lectures, p. 253.]

[Footnote 52:  Compare the definition of an ‘outcast’ in the Vasala-sutta:  “He that gets angry and feels hatred, a wicked man, a hypocrite, he that embraces wrong views and is deceitful, such an one is an outcast, and he that has no compassion for living things.”]

     [Footnote 53:  Compare ib. 5. 36:  “In due course he spoke,
     of charity, morality, heaven, pleasure, and the advantage of
     renunciation.”]

     M[=a]gandiya, and Suddhatthaka Suttas, translated by
     Fausboell, SBE. vol.  X.]
