self-discipline etc. (ref. to VII 21), saying that they take things not given (adinna: ad att a) when they regard as their property something that has been given to them but does not reach them by some cause or other. The theras refute the argument on the ground of their tenet 'the action that is being performed equals the completed action'. They return the accusation to the annautthiyas because the latter do not approve of that tenet. b. In the same way the annautthiyas accuse the theras of offending against the [living] earth by going etc. The theras repel the charge, putting forward that they, unlike the annautthiyas themselves, do not tread the earth without reason and discrimination (desam desenam vayāmo, paesam paeseņam v.). Against the dissidents they contend that the tenet of the equality of the action that is being performed and the completed action also applies to going etc. (gamamāne gae vīikkamijjamāne vīikkante Rāyagiham nagaram sampāviukāme sampatte). In conclusion they enunciate the lesson (ajjhayaņa) 'Contradictory Utterance on Gait' (Gaippavāya).
