The teachings of the Buddha contained in the Tripitaka (Pali), also known as the doctrine of the elders (Therava). These texts are the hundreds and always recite verbatim since the compiler first period was convened

Pali Tripitaka and the related literature exists as a result of the discovery of the Buddha on the path and the path of liberation of the legal net. This pathway helps those who follow it can live a carefree life and peace. In fact, today we are fortunate to have the true teachings of the Buddha which they are kept for future generations through the dedicated efforts and cooperation of his disciple through age. Buddha told his disciples that when he is gone, it is essential to gather Sangha together to recite the Fa, exactly like what he taught. Do right with this advice, the first Elder trendy convened a conference and arranged a systematic way all the texts and the precepts of the Buddha and recite them with natural accurate Posted in consensus.
The teachings contained in the Tripitaka (Pali), also known as the doctrine of the elders (Therava).

Then add the other compiler period was summoned for a number of reasons, but in each compiled the entire teachings of Buddha have always been a member of the Sangha involved reciting verbatim and by the Consensus. First United compiler occurred three months after the Buddha and more in each other compiler, but two of which were convened at the XIX and XX century. But the reading exercise which we are monks perform feats compiled in Buddhism is called "Dhamma Sangiti" - reciting France. They are defined as such because the decision is set out in the first compiler period, when all the teachings are reciting the first by an Elder of the Sangha and then get all the monks present at the conference in unison reciting again. The reread such proceedings are considered authentic, if and only if, it is the members of the conference unanimously approved. Here is a brief history on June period Buddhist Council.
Buddhist Council first
King Ajatasattu (Ajatasatru) sponsored the first compiler period. United compiler was convened in 544 (tr.TL) in the Satiapanni located outside Rajagaha (Rajgir) three months after the Buddha's passing. A detailed description of the history of this conference can be found in Cullavagga (sub-products) of Vinaya. According to this document, the fact that elders Mahakassapa convene this conference that he heard a sad comment on strict rules for living monks. The work is as follows: monk named Subhadda previously a barber, was ordained late in later life, when he heard that the Buddha, voice resentment is to follow all the rules for monks that the Buddha has rules. While many monks are saddened by the passing of the Buddha and deeply mourned, then heard Subhadda Mahakassapa elders say: "Enough of the Venerable, do not be distressed, do not be mourned. We get rid of this great hermit (Buddha). We suffer when he says, 'that you are allowed to do, which you are not allowed to do', but for now we will be able to do what we like and do not do what we do like ''.
Mahakassapa worried when I heard this remark and fears that France and the Law can be misleading and do not survive intact if the other monks as Subbhada attitude and explain France and law as they wish. To prevent this he decided that France should be preserving and upholding. Finally, after gaining the consent of the Sangha, he convened a meeting of 499 Arhat you with Ananda. With Mahakassapa presiding elders, 500 monks gathered during the rainy season. The first thing to do is ask people Mahakassapa crystal Vinaya consistency at that time, Venerable Upali, in the specific case of the rule. Venerable Upali Main qualified for this task because the Buddha taught him all Vinaya. First Presbyterian Mahakassapa asked him a specific way to the first world law (parajika), related to the subject, interdependent, individuals are introduced, claims, repeat claims, the scope violations and cases of non-infringement. Upali presented the answer in a proficient and satisfactory, and the remarks of teachers received the consent of the monastic presence. So officially approved Vinaya.
Elder Mahakassapa then towards Ananda because his admirable ability on all matters relating to France. Really happy, on the night before the conference was held, holy Ananda attained Arhat. Mahakassapa elders, so can finally ask you with absolute confidence in France with a specific mention of the scriptures of the Buddha. The interrogation of France requires verification of the location where all the texts and objects preached preached. Ananda, supported by accurate memory transcending his every word to be able to answer correctly, and so the texts received the approval of the Sangha. First United compiler closed where questions about the parts and minor rules, and compliance with our consent. Monks took seven months to recite the whole law and that France and monks fully endowed a good memory to remember all that was reciting. States compiled the first history are called the Five cypress compiler (Pancasatika), because there are 500 Arhat enlightenment involved in that.

Detailed case are as follows: One day, while visiting the Great Forest (Mahavana) at Vesali, Elder Yasa said that a large group of monks called the world which served are violating not allow monks receive gold silver when they publicly ask these things from their disciple. He directly criticized the behavior of this group and their response was offered him a part of things that are not lawful in the hope he will fall for them.
But Elder Yasa was rejected and despised express their behavior. The monk was immediately accused rebuked believers in their home, and asked him to perform the rite of reconciliation.

Those at home immediately expressed support for the Yasa and declared that the monks which served as the wronged and heresy. They say, "Only the foot Increase Elder Yasa, Like death. And all the others not increase, is not like the word ".
The wayward monks which served then drag to pursue Elder Yasa without the approval of the remaining members of the Sangha. Then they know the influence of Elder Yasa met for their lay followers. However, Elder Yasa did avoid their attack and to seek support from other monks, who supported his views on Vinaya. 60 monks residing in the forest from Pava and 80 monks from the southern region Avanti they share thoughts, expressed his help to stop the deterioration Vinaya. Together they decided to go to Soreyya to confer with Revata venerable monks because he is a highly respected and is a proficient French and Law. Even knowing this, which served well to monks seek the support of the venerable Revata by offering him the four requisites but he immediately rejected. The monk then uses her way to convince the steward of Venerable Uttara Revata teacher.
First he Uttara Charcoal also reject their offerings but they persuaded him go get their offerings, said that when the requisites for his Buddha was not received, Ananda is required get them and often agree to do so. He Uttara they changed their minds and receive the necessary supplies. Be they insisted, he then agreed to go to convince venerable Revata to declare that the monks which served really are people who speak the truth and upholding French people.

To solve the problem in a decisive way, venerable Revata recommends organizing a major conference in Valikarama and he will ask seniors among the elders at that time, Elder Sabbakami, about 10 articles violated.
Whenever his opinion it must be submitted to a panel of eight monks listening, and its validity is determined by their vote.

This way the Sangha monks were purged heretical monks and useless.
