Here, Akampita and Acalabhrātă, both of them, were together, at the head of one Caņa, and each of them taught three hundred pupils and similarly Métārya and Arya Prabhas, both of them, were together at the head of one Gana; and hence, it is well-said that Sramaņa Bhagavān Mahāvīra had nine Gaņas and eleven Gañadhars.
Besides, Sthavira Mandita and Sthavira Mauryaputra were brothers having one mother Vijayādévi, but have different gotras derived from the gotras of their different fathers-the father of Mandita was Dhanadeva sada of Vāśiştha
