With reference to the Mulapariyaya, -- and I have no authority for this other than as it is the way I learned this from certain of my teachers whose credentials it would be very hard to check -- I believe somehow "sabba" has been substituted for "Sassata" where the idea of the eternal, perpetual, the doctrine that soul and world are eternal, would fit better...that is, in the sequence: ekatta, oneness; nanatta, diversity; s.; and Nibbana.
