Dhammapada on the dispute at Kosambī. Two teachers, one teaching Dhamma, the other teaching Vinaya, lived at Kosambī, each teaching a group of monks. One day, the Dhamma teacher forgot to replace the rinsing water in the toilet. The Vinaya teacher reminded the Dhamma teacher that this was a minor offence. The Dhamma teacher acknowledged his offence, explaining that he just forgotten to do it. The Vinaya teacher then said that there was no offence as it was unintentional. So, when it came to the time for confession, the Dhamma teacher didn’t confess any offence. The Vinaya teacher told his pupils that the Dhamma teacher hadn’t confessed his offence. The Dhamma teacher told his pupils that the Vinaya teacher didn’t know what was an offence or what was not an offence, and the pupils quarrelled. The quarrelsome monks would not listen even to the Buddha, so he left Kosambī and spent the rainy season in the forest. The laity was disappointed and stopped offering alms. The monks made up and asked the Buddha for forgiveness.
