Bhagavati Sutra Bk. 8 Ch. 10
A. 393. Gautama! What the heretics hold, till assert, is far from the truth. My view in this matter is, and I firmly hold this view, that there are four types of people as follows: some have conduct but not canons; some have canons but not conduct; some have both; and some have neither. Gautama! Of these, the first type has conduct but not canons. He is desisted from sin but is ignorant of the Law. I call him a part-follower. The second type has canons but not conduct. He knows the Law but does not desist from sin. I call him a part-heretic. The third type has both so that he desists from sin as well as knows the Law. He is a full follower. The fourth type has neither so that he neither desists from sin nor knows the Law. Such a person is a full
heretic.
