Vasumitra in his famous work'Origin and doctrines of early Indián Buddhist schools' (Samaya-bhedoparacanacakra)1 enumerates the following four doctrines as characteristic of the Sautrāntika school: '(i) The skandhas transmigrate from one world to the other: hence the name Saṃkrānti-vāda; (ii) There are mulāntika-skandhas and eka-rasa-skandhas; (iii) An average person (prthagjana) also possesses the potentiality of becoming a Buddha (lit. in the statě of average man there are also divine things, drya-dharmas); (iv) There are paramārtha-pudgalas '.2
