The Buddhists and the Jains seems to have formed only a single sect.
The legend of Buddha and that of Mahāvira offer great resemblances. Mahāvīra would have died in 388 B.C. This date would be equally that of the death of Buddha. The edicts of Asoke relating to the respect for animal life are rather confermable to the doctrines of the Jains than to those of the Buddhists.
