[160] Bhikkhus, it is impossible, there is no chance, that a person accomplished in view (diṭṭhisampanna) could cause a schism in the Saṅgha—no such possibility exists. But, bhikkhus, this possibility does exist: that a worldling (puthujjana) could cause a schism in the Saṅgha—this possibility exists.
