Mahadeva propounded five-points (pancavatthu) that are said to be a doctrinal issue, introduced them to his pupils at kukkutarama of pataliputra, and eventually caused a split within the monastic establishment.

After the death of the Buddha, his religious institution, samgha, split into different sects. Scholars believe there are two reasons for this split: a dispute on disciplinary codes, the ten points (dasavatthu), which was introduced at the second buddhist council by the vajjian pancavaggiya monks. After the councils rejection, the vajjian monks left the council, causing a split. A doctrinal controversy propounded by a monk called Mahadeva.
